  1. I have seen various videos about plants that used to be in our diet but no longer are. Have you ever considered a video about companies that preserve the seeds of plants we no longer have in our diet but are better for us? It would be interesting to those of us that might want have seeds of plants that were ancient foods. It would be interesting to try them and see what other plants they have available.

  2. In tropical climates in south.east asia, like : Vietnam, Phils., Thailand, Malaysia, india, etc.- will such "chufa" plant flourish, survive, etc.?… Pls answer my query….

  3. in Spain and in Catalan-speaking areas, it is consistently called chufa (Spanish) or xufa (Catalan). In English, it is most commonly known as the tiger nut or earth almond.
