Food Articles

So I know the chart for the Food Articles (él, la, los, las or un, una, unos, unas), but I still don't understand when to say "una papa" and when to say "la papa". Could you explain it by using it in context?
Thanks in advance!

Sure, this one is easy. It´s like English, where we have ´a´ and ´the´
A potato is ¨Una papa¨ The potato is ¨La papa¨
Quiero una papa y una manzana.
I want a potato and an apple.
La papa es un ejemplo del tipo de las plantas que se llaman tubérculos. The potato is an examle of the type of plants called tubers.
Hope that helps.
