The Columbian Exchange is categorized as the movement of life in both directions across the Atlantic—from Eurasia and Africa to the Americas and vice versa. Whether discussing horses in the Americas or chili peppers in Asia, introductions to new flora and fauna during the 15th and 16th centuries on these continents gave way to drastic changes in environment, resulting in changes in ways of life. How did these lifestyle changes translate to agriculture and food culture?
