    So, just an island potato that can be harvested for a small time frame each year?
    Okay... Well, White Chuño potatoes only grow on the mountains of Boliva and Peru, they are harvested by hand and need to be frozen before consumption, they can be harvested only during a month and the process between harvesting them and getting them ready for consumption takes about a month. The royal potatoes fit for the the Emperor of the Inca.

      Omelette au fromage, supreme leader, because *the adjective "at" functions as a kind of hyphen that separates two nouns that don't intuitive go together.*
      Otherwise, "de/de la/du" would literally mean "from", so you'd be saying "omelette (literally came from) cheese", rather than "made out of cheese".
