Pepper wasn't "invented" in the traditional sense, as it is a natural spice derived from the dried fruit of the Piper nigrum plant. It has been used for thousands of years, primarily for its flavor and as a preservative. Historically, pepper was highly sought after, leading to trade routes and even exploration, as it became a valuable commodity in ancient times. Its popularity stems from its ability to enhance food, mask spoilage, and its potential health benefits.
