What is The Potato about?
The potato originated in South America thousands of years ago and was an important crop for the Inca Empire. The Spanish brought the potato to Europe in the 1500s but it was initially met with distrust and suspicion. Over subsequent centuries, the potato gained acceptance across Europe as a useful crop, especially during times of famine and food shortages. The potato became a staple in Ireland and helped fuel the rapid growth of the Irish population in the late 1700s and early 1800s.
