Good morning to you all😊..I hope we all had a blissful night rest?
This morning, we will be educating ourselves on the topic POTATOES.
...
Potatoes are edible tubers, available worldwide and all year long. They are relatively cheap to grow, rich in nutrients, and they can make a delicious treat.
The humble potato has fallen in popularity in recent years, due to the interest in low-carb foods.
However, the fiber, vitamins , minerals, and phytochemicals it provides can help ward off disease and benefit human health.
Potatoes were first domesticated in the Andes in South America up to 10,000 years ago. Spanish explorers introduced them to Europe in the early 16th century.
They are now the biggest vegetable crop in the United States (U.S.), where the average person eats 55 pounds ,
or 35 kilograms (kg) of potatoes every year. They are an important staple food in many countries around the world.
Thanks for reading 😊... I hope we enjoyed it?
