Potato Quote

In Lancashire, where next to Ireland, the potatoe is most generally used as food, the admirable complexions of the wenches are so remarkably delicate, as  to excite in their superiors very friendly and flattering sensations.

— David Henry, The Complete English Farmer, or, A Practical System of Husbandry (London, 1771), 275-6.
