Potato skins, also sometimes referred to as potato jackets, are a snack food or appetizer made of unpeeled potato halves, hollowed and dressed with bacon, cheddar cheese and green onions before being baked again. They are commonly found on the menus of casual dining restaurants in the United States.[1] While popularly eaten in restaurants and pubs, these snacks are also commonly made at home[2] or can be purchased frozen at grocery stores.[3]
