      Why is there a picture of a yam on there, instead of a sweet potato?

      Interestingly, it’s also called a Kumara here in New Zealand. There’s also a small town by the same name

      In Argentina the one that appears in the picture is called “boniato”. We use the word “batata” for the greenish, more stringy/fibrous variety.

      Also boniato wasn’t commercialised in Argentina until a few years ago. So we used to call it “batata uruguaya”.

      The sweet potato’s botanical name is Ipomoea batatas, with “batata” coming from the Taino word for sweet potato. The Taino were the historic indigenous people of the Caribbean.

      I’m trying to figure out how the most isolated Papua/Guinea tribes adopted sweet potatoes as the staple food.
