The Yam of Doom!

Yam balls are great. They sort of melt in your mouth with their gingery-goodness. Yam Balls are a great hit with the gay boys, but so are most balls.

The Goodness of the yam. The dark side of the yam. May the yam be with you.

"Luke, I am your yam."
"Talking like Yamda I am!"

Yamma-Lamma-Ding-Dong.

Would it be a dilyam or a yamdo?

Yams are often mistakenly called sweet potatoes, and vice versa, but they are two different vegetables. The true yam is the tuber of a tropical vine, and is not even distantly related to the sweet potato. Rarely found in US markets, the yam is a popular vegetable in Latin American and Caribbean markets. Generally sweeter than than the sweet potato, this tuber can grow over seven feet in length.

I was born in Yamloops. Not many people know that.

If you find them, they will most likely be sold in chunks sealed in plastic wrap, since they grow up to 7 feet in length and weigh up to 150 pounds.

That's a lotta yammy goodness.

A Book that should never be written: Your Yam and You, a Mothers Guide.

Uncle Yam Wants You! Join the Army.

If I were a Rich Yam

There are over 150 varieties available worldwide. Although you may find canned vegetables labeled as yams, they are most likely not true yams.

This yam has been brought to you by the letter Yammy and the number yamteen.
