Spuds were big. But, there are many substitutes for 'taters in the starch
department. Not so many for tomatoes - which is the biggest deal (along with
chilies) that Hernan Cotes brought back from Tenochtítlan, (now Mexico City).

Without tomatoes there would be no ketchup to put on our French (Belgian) fries
and no dead 'orse for your pie floaters.
