Many new foods were transported! not only foods, but also culture and ideas were exchanged, therefore making the world a bit more globalized culturally and economically
There were many new animals and plants in the Americas that Europeans had never seen. And, Europeans brought plants and animals to the New World that America had never seen. The Columbian Exchange was also a cultural exchange. New agricultural developments were traded, economic activity and opportunities opened up between the New and Old Worlds, and new ideas were exchanged.

People say that the Columbian Exchange occurred but it really didn't benefit the people of the New World very much. For the New World was the loss of 90 percent of the native population due to

diseases that they never had seen before. There had been about 80 million and only around 720,000 were left.

From the Old World to the New:

The deadly smallpox, malaria, yellow fever, gonorrhea, chlamydia, common cold, measles, influenza, chickenpox, cattle, horses, pigs, sheep, goats, chickens, slaves from Africa, barley, wheat, rye, sugar cane, coffee, dandelions and ragweed.

From the New World to the Old:

Tobacco, syphilis, corn, squash, beans, most importantly potatoes, turkeys, llamas, peanuts, pumpkins and peppers.

The Columbian Exchange brought trade and new goods to Europe and Africa, established relationships between countries, and created a new source of wealth for the Europeans.
