O Pequeno Potatinho!steemCreated with Sketch.

in #googlyeyes5 years ago (edited)

This is little Potatinho.

His ancestors were grown by Inca in Peru around 8,000 BC. It took a long time before the first potatoes left the mother land. As the story says, it was across the big water by spanish ships. The first step was hard, but very soon they conquered the whole Europe. Only a few generations later, brave potatoes were on their way to North America... Little by little, they dispersed all over the world. And even further! In October 1995, the potato became the first vegetable grown in space. And hopefully one day on some colonies.

But none of these facts will make his life any better.

Do you still think that everything is better with googlyeyes!? :D

sad life cycle! :(

Hmm... That remind me on one of many weird stories from the Douglas Adams books and his trip on a small boat with 4 live chickens (live - because it was important to have food in a unrotten form). There he wrote about unhidden and legitimate chickens fear and a strong taboo in civilized mind about eating someone you officially met.

Squeezing live? That's power ;-)

Even worse! Half boiled.

Potatoes are unlucky. People lunch or dinner ;-)

hmm... :D
If they got eaten, maybe they fulfill their purpose :P

Do not you eat potatoes with you? With us, the potatoes eat and drink ;-)

Mr. Potato Head has approved! :D

oh wow... halfway through I thought "Oh look it's a mexican wrestler!" but then things got really gory!

This post is not for the faint of heart. :P

Love the story you spun here!

Yep... I also think that post is quite brutal but as I can see Steemit is not popular within the age under 18. Also, those with a faint heart went away with falling the coin price.
We can conclude that everyone is safe for now.

Believe me, he didn't suffer long, I was quick.
