Ancient humans? Europe didn’t have potatoes until they were imported from the Americas in the 1600s. Conversely, the Americas didn’t have apples. So it would basically be impossible for anyone before the Colombian exchange to have eaten both of these fruits.
I think this came from the fact that if you bit into an apple and a raw potato while holding your nose, they’d have the same exact taste and texture
That’s an interesting theory. Maybe ancient humans didn’t have a sense of taste.
