Trivia:

Potato

It was in the region of modern-day Southern Peru and extreme northwest of Bolivia that the potato was first introduced between 8000 and 5000 B.C.

The Spanish Conquistadors conquered Peru in 1536 and discovered different flavors of the potato. Potatoes were then also carried to Europe where they became even more famous. It wasn’t in moments that potato became known globally; in fact, it took about four decades for it to spread completely to Europe only.

Pasta

The first indication of the conventional Italian cuisine i.e. pasta comes from 1154 in Sicily. Since then, more than 300 types of pasta with surpassing 1300 names have been recognized.

Although there are several theories regarding the origin of pasta, the first reliable information regarding pasta dates back to the 13^th or 14^th century.

It is believed that the initial pasta machines were manufactured in the 1600s in Italy. The equipment stretched to other areas such as Genoa, Apulia, Brindisi, Bari, and Tuscany soon. A business called Buitoni Company in Sansepolcro, Tuscany became the champion and was referred to as the best pasta manufacturers on the planet by 1867.
