Read the passage from Sugar Changed the World.
I wanted to know more about the beguiling Nina, and
my cousin had plenty of stories to share. He told me
that her grandfather was a Russian seri-a farmer who
could be bought and sold by the noble who owned his
land. Family legend has it that this seri, a remarkable
and intelligent man, helped to change the course of the
history of sugar. In the early 1800s, the British
controlled most of the sugar plantations of the
Caribbean and the sea routes to Europe. As a result,
their rivals were desperate to find a new way to create
sugar. They turned to beets.
We don't know exactly what Nina's grandfather's
invention did, but as the story goes, he found a way to
give raw beet sugar sparkling hues. People from
Russia to the cafés of Vienna could now buy cheap
and attractive sugar produced on European soil.
