Idaho is an anthropomorphic potato, with a face, arms, and legs, all drawn in black. He is very small, and is quite possibly the tiniest character in the show so far (excluding Virus). In Season 2, his face gets smaller, and he becomes slightly darker.

Personality
Idaho, having been born and raised in the countryside, follows  beliefs and mannerisms similar to the Amish, and speaks with a Southern twang. He also does not seem to be very bright.

Trivia
