It was early considered a medicinal herb and honestly lacked the versatility of Wheat at the time (being able make bread out of it as one example) and depending on where you look it, didn't really become a staple food till about the 1500's.

EVERYONE! You are all ignoring something this chapter! This MC... he's speaking German or something. How is he suddenly able to speak fluent German? In fact, I just noticed it this chapter... OTL
This manga is so full of bullshit it's astounding. The one that got me was a pair of 10 gram chopsticks that can somehow restraining fucking 2 ton charging bull. That's some Jap superiority right there. OOOOK.
Löwenburg is a castle in modern Kassel, Germany. Also I don't find it unbelievable that the protagonist speaks German, you're forgetting he's some sort of world-famous magician, he could very well speak several languages for touring purposes.
