Title of the article :
The fun factoid included -
In 1992, U.S. Vice President Dan Quayle was visiting an elementary school in New Jersey when a 12-year-old boy was asked to write “potato” on a chalk board. Quayle “corrected” the youngster by telling him the word has an “e” on the end of it. It doesn’t.
Seems Quayle got a bad rap over this one. It's easy to see the word written plural and think it would be singular just by removing the "S". I can't think of another word that behaves like this one does.
