What is The Fascinating History of Potatoes about?

The potato was first domesticated by Andean indigenous people around 8000–5000 BCE and became a staple crop in the Inca Empire. Introduced to Europe by Spanish conquistadors in the 16th century, it gained popularity as a food source, especially during the 17th and 18th centuries, despite the devastation of the Irish Potato Famine in the mid-19th century. Today, potatoes are a major global food staple, benefiting from industrialization and processed food innovations.
