ResponderEliminarThis morning I've just noticed that potatoes are more important that they seem. Potatoes are a great food to keep yourself healthy. It's also food that you can plant lots of times. Only by breaking it in little peaces and planting them one by one you can grow any potatoes as you want.
ResponderEliminarI've also heard that you can charge a smart phone with a potato. You only need to connect the cable to it and your mobile phone will start to charge. That's a really clever thing because if you go anywhere else where you don't have any plug to charge your mobile you can connect it to a potato and you'll have your phone charged in a couple of hours.
Potatoes are very important in our world, but what I most like is eating them at McDonalds. They're so delicious and they are much better when you add them any sauce like Ketchup or Mayonnaise. I love potatoes!

The potato is a species of herbaceous plant belonging to the genus Solanum of the Solanaceae family, native to the region that today would comprise the southern highlands of Peru1 and northwestern Bolivia.2 It was domesticated in the Andean altiplano and in the vicinity of Lake Titicaca by the inhabitants of this region for about 8,000 years.3 4 In the sixteenth century began to be moved to Europe by the Spanish conquerors who considered it a botanical curiosity and not a food plant . Its consumption was growing, although initially as a forage and garden plant for its flowers, and its gastronomic use expanded worldwide since the eighteenth century thanks to the agronomic writings of the Frenchman Antoine Parmentier and the Irishman based in Spain Enrique Doyle, to become today one of the main foods of the human being
