Pachacamac

Pachacamac is the almighty Incan creator god. He was super pumped to create a race of humans, but promply forgot to give them food. So, the human's began to die of starvation, all the humans started to curse him.
In the attempt to appease the starving, angry masses, Pachacamac turned the first woman's son into a potato. That didn't go over as well as he hoped.

Another deity eventually turned the humans into rocks, and spared the single potato

Quinuama

This Deity of the Day comes from the Incan pantheon. Quinuama is a grain goddess, who looks after a grain called quinoa. It is like rice.

She was primarily worshiped in the Andes.

I wish I had some more information on her; does anyone know anything?
