This is like imagining Ireland before potatoes were brought back from the America's, it's impossible. Or thinking about India not having spicy peppers, as they came from the America's as well. Fucking Caeser got drunk and made his salad in Mexico cause he was to lazy to make it back.

I believe yams are still native to Asia and Africa, I wonder if they had these as more popular until the American potatos took over
