Roasting tubers, as shown in this photo of Hadza hunter-gatherers in Tanzania, enhances their digestibility.



Anthropologists have found evidence that support theories about our ancient ancestors diets. I guess it is not shocking news, they had tubers and bulbs back then too. Among the underground food I prefer potatoes and carrots. :-)
