El tubérculo americano despreciable y feo que termino salvando a Europa del hambre, calmando la sed de los Rusos, completando la comida francesa y siendo símbolo de Irlanda.
La papa es la primera planta cosechada en el espacio, se usa para hacer plásticos y es tema historico del arte
Una cosecha cada ano desde 1992.
Al final estas, como en cualquier cosecha, del bulto al tendero y luego a la mesa. En cualquier caso como adorno o como objeto de arte, las papas de cada cosecha son regaladas, intercambiadas o vendidas, se convierten en una forma de moneda que trata de comentar sobre lo abstracto hoy, de conceptos basicos de realidad.

The original name for french fries was "potatoes, fried in the French manner" that is how Thomas Jefferson first described the dish. Jefferson introduced french fries to the colonies in the late 1700s.

NOTE: Although potatoes were called "potatoes of the Virginia" by early English botanists, they were in fact from South America, not the state of Virginia in the United States.

NOTE: Although potatoes were called "potatoes of the Virginia" by early English botanists, they were in fact from South America, not the state of Virginia in the United States.
The potato was carried on to Italy and England about 1585, to Belgium and Germany by 1587, to Austria about 1588, and to France around 1600. Wherever the potato was introduced, it was considered weird, poisonous, and downright evil. In France and elsewhere, the potato was accused of causing not only leprosy, but also syphilis, narcosis, scronfula, early death, sterillity, and rampant sexuality, and of destroying the soil where it grew. There was so much opposition to the potato that an edict was made in the town of Besancon, France stating:
"In view of the fact that the potato is a pernicious substance whose use can cause leprosy, it is hereby forbidden, under pain of fine, to cultivate it."
