Jean-Louis, I see repeatedly that starch is hard to digest if raw,
yet as a teen I knew one boy who ate raw potato like an apple
(don't ask) with no problem, and have read that starch digests
as well raw as cooked.
   Do any studies document the notion that raw starch is less
digestible? (I know about granules exploding in moist heat, but
find the greater digestibility a non sequitur).
