My text states When Ponce de León arrived with Columbus in 1493, the Spanish added beef, pork, rice, wheat, and olive oil to the island's foodstuffs. Soon after, the Spanish began planting sugarcane and importing slaves from Africa, who brought with them okra and taro (known in Puerto Rico as yautia)
Ms. Sue
Hmm! But your answers don't match your text. I think the answer is yams which originate in Africa.

Okay I that was my other choice since Africa did have a big variety of fruits
