Definitely Toss: Other
Sorry, but this is far too close to an old urban legend for me to accept without further proof, particularly since the original story only appeared in one newspaper, which all other media are sourcing, directly or indirectly.

Here's a usable link: http://myfox8.com/2014/10/05/potato-found-growing-inside-woman-after-being-used-a-contraceptive/ I do find this rather unique. And as "hick" as this remedy may be, it would certainly be very difficult to get someone who had inserted a potato contraceptive pregnant! Thanks!
