[Sca-cooks] taro root

[Stefan li Rous]

Adamantius mentioned:
<<< I have, however, eaten steamed chestnuts in Chinese rice  
dumplings, various French purees and similarly-flavored starchy foods  
such as taro root,...>

Where did you eat taro root?

The little I know about taro root was from sociology textbooks from  
grade school about the South Pacific. Quite some time ago, and perhaps  
as Urtatim says, a bit biased in their writing, being from an American  
point of view. I wasn't aware of it being available, or eaten outside  
of that region.
