          Antoine-Augustin Parmentier

          French pharmacist and agronomist (1737–1813)

          Antoine-Augustin Parmentier (, ;[1]French:[ɑ̃twanoɡystɛ̃paʁmɑ̃tje]; 12 August 1737 – 13 December 1813) was a French pharmacist and agronomist, best remembered as a vocal promoter of the potato as a food source for humans in France and throughout Europe.

          His many other contributions to nutrition and health included establishing the first mandatory smallpox vaccination campaign in France (under Napoleon beginning in 1805, when he was Inspector-General of the Health Service) and pioneering the extraction of sugar from sugar beets.

          Parmentier also founded a school of breadmaking and studied methods of conserving food, including refrigeration.

          While serving as an army pharmacist[2][3] for France in the Seven Years' War, he was captured by the Prussians, and in prison in Prussia was faced with eating potatoes, known to the French only as hog feed.
