ALBANY, N.Y., May 6, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- While the cultivation of tiger nuts as a crop, medicinal plant, and weed associated for a millennia, the food has a long, strange history with humans. Interestingly, tiger nuts were a vital component of the diet of our ancestors – without much knowledge of their high fiber, low calorie and low fat virtues. But, over centuries, the humble tiger nut faded, loathed by farmers as one of the absolutely worst weeds in the world. Tiger nut wreaks havoc in gardens and causes millions of dollars of damage to agricultural crop each year.
