At most, you might face some digestion issues for a while which should clear in about a day. In most cases, nothing will happen if you eat partially undercooked potatoes. Eating completely or significantly undercooked potatoes could at most cause some digestion problems for a day or two.


What happens if you eat slightly raw potato?

Are slightly undercooked potatoes safe to eat?
