Dubious statistic
The following 'fact' is taken from the BBC website During the Jersey Royal season, exports from Jersey account for 75% of all potato sales in the United Kingdom but doesn't make sense. I suspect there may be something missing from the BBC report e.g. the word salad. Reasons for thinking that this is wrong:
The volume of potato sales in the UK per week is huge all year around. The volume of potatoes that could be grown in a place the size of Jersey could not come near to 3/4 of this.
Even in season, salad potatoes are only a minority of potato consumption in the UK.
The title of this article has been changed several times now. I'd suggest discussing the correct title, and gaining some consensus. The title is now "Jersey Royals" which is possibly incorrect, because it seems to be a trademarked brand name rather than the name of a potato, and should be in singular form anyhow.

Requested move 22 October 2016

move review. No further edits should be made to this section.
oppose The jersey royals are distinct from international kidney as they have to be grown in Jersey. While we could have a separate article for the variety, it would be pointless as there is little written about the variety apart from it being grown in jersey. JR is far more common than IK so there us no reason to move the article.
