Leeks were a part of the Egyptian diet from around the 2nd millennium B.C., and were grown in Mesopotamia from about the same period. The leek was the favorite vegetable of the Emperor Nero, who frequently enjoyed them in soup. The Phoenicians are said to have been the first to bring leeks to Wales when trading tin, and it soon became a staple part of the Welsh diet. In about 640 AD, when the Saxons were fighting the Welsh, King Cadwallader told his Welsh soldiers to wear leeks to distinguish themselves from their opponents. To this day, the Welsh still wear a leek or a representation of one in their hats. Leeks were first brought to North America and Canada by early settlers.
