Just found out today if they start to sprout even a little you shouldn't eat them?
For what its worth the photo above is a sweet potato which is different and generally wont become poisonous.
Sweet potato leaves can even be eaten, they are nice stir fried with garlic and ginger.
However never try to eat regular potato leaves, they are poisonous
Also probably taste bitter and nasty, I once tried to eat a potato berry when I was younger and before I knew they weren't edible and it tasted awful. Don't judge me I was 5 and didn't know any better, but I definitely know better now.
