The stories of heavily guarding the potatoes to make it popular was basically a canon event at that point

I thought this was Frederick the Great of Prussia that used reverse potato psychology, not anyone in France

Either the two guards are bf of each other, or they have 1 different gf every few days

Interesting how similar this story is to the Prussian story about Frederick the Great. Supposedly, he too had potato fields guarded by soldiers so people would assume the crop was valuable and start stealing and cultivating it themselves. That said, we aren’t entirely sure whether either story actually happened this way. It’s likely that both tales were later romanticized versions of very real efforts to promote potato farming in Europe… Maybe a disclaimer would have been nice that this is more of a legend than a fact

They used the same tactic with cabbage or citrus, on boat. It was a meal reserved for the officiers. Surelly after the crew were interested to get some because they thought it was a premium meal... I use thr same tactic with my children for the greens.

They actually thought it's a demonic creature because it grows underneath the surface.

This same story is thrown around so many times. I've heard it apparently was the Prussians, the English, the Russians, and now the French.
