Thanks! I found it in a really interesting article in
Smithsonian about potatoes (they call
ch'uñu by its (Andean?) Spanish name
chuño). I think that article actually really helped me understand how Europe became so powerful, and I had no idea until I read that article how incredibly important potatoes were for feeding Europe and preventing famines, which in turn led to a dramatic improvement to the standard of living.
