Correct Answer: Spanish


Solution : The correct option is Spanish

The potato's flavors were discovered in Peru by Spanish Conquistadors in 1536, and they were brought back to Europe. The vegetable wasn't immediately well-liked. Contingent tubers (and maize), according to historians, may have been transported and planted ashore.  In 1589, Sir Walter Raleigh brought potatoes to Ireland, but it took the rest of Europe nearly 40 years to catch on to the potato.
