I stopped taking advice like this seriously when my wife became pregnant.
You'd have one group of "experts" saying you shouldn't eat fish, a second saying you should eat as much fish as you can (common advice in Japan, apparently), and a third saying you should just continue as usual[1].
Of course, nobody ever tests their theories because that would risk killing a baby.
If potatoes were actually dangerous, they'd have a big red label on every bag, in 6 languages, telling you to throw them out if they have slight bits of green on them. Perhaps a little colour chart that tells you how green is too green.
Of course, they don't, and the industry hasn't been sued into oblivion, so based on that I'd be shocked if they were as poisonous as this article suggets.
[1] All advice we read recommends pregnant women limit intake of high-mercury fish such as shark and tuna, and I think there might be actual evidence for this one too.
