The History of Potatoes

Potatoes were originally discovered on the Andean plateaus, and set out to conquer the world around 6,000 years ago when the Inca Indians first cultivated them.

The modern potato, now grown all over the world, was discovered in the 16th century by Spanish explorers in Peru. Shortly after this, the potato was introduced to Spain and to other European and Asian countries. Eventually, it made its way back across the Atlantic to North America.

Not only is the potato nutritious, it's easy to grow in almost all climates and produces abundantly. Just dig, store and eat as needed.
