The Norwegian Spud

The Norwegian Spud is a rare species of potato found in North-West Norway. It was first discovered by Professor I.G.Campbell in early 2018. Ever since the Norwegian Spud has been used in many Northern European health foods, due to its extensive proteins and vitamins balancing its carbohydrate levels.

Professor I.G.Campbell is a biologist, botanist, author, geologist, etymologist, heart surgeon and capsicumanuumologist. She was born in 1951 and currently enjoys a relaxing retirement in North-West Norway, indulging on Norwegian Spuds. Despite her numerous accomplishments, Campbell invested her fascination in Norway by remaining in that country. Thus, she has never received much public recognition nor acknowledgement.

Campbell originally named the Norwegian Spuds, Young Potatoes, after her close friend and similarly enthusiastic capsicumanuumologist. The two studied together at high school, where they became friends due to their shared interest in capsicumanuumology (the study of potatoes). In an interview with the NBC, Campbell said, "I always loved Norway and potatoes. I thought, it's a shame potatoes don't grow in Norway. Then, one day, I came across [Norwegian Spuds] when on a botanical expedition on the North-West coast of Norway. I was pleasantly surprised."

The Norwegian Spud is unique in the manner that it is able to stand Norway's harsh North-West environment - often subject to heavy snow, cold, rain and wind. In the same interview, Campbell said, "We're still trying to discover the Norwegian Spud's secret to surviving this climate. We only discovered it a few months ago, of course... It is in appearance and structure very similar to that of a Doré Potato, but contains many more vitamins. It shares a lot of characteristics with spinach, however. We think it may be a natural cross-between. You never know - we're experimenting on them in every aspect possible in order to understand this mysterious vegetable."
