Default Banana skins - compostible?

While on the subject of composting, but off the topic of banana skins,
I have almost a sack of last years potatoes, will these compost
easily? The reason I ask is that, like I image most people, potatoes
springing up in seed beds are a real nuisance.


They grow very well in compost heaps :-)

Yes indeed, that is the problem I have. Freezing or heating a sack of
potatoes would take more energy than worth the result.
