I’d argue we also didn’t suffer without cranberries - we always had the similarly delicious Vaccinium vitis-idaea.

One correction and fun fact: We absolutely had bamboo.

The bamboo you can see in Spain is the American one and now that I think about it, to call it bamboo it’s a relatively recent thing, thirty years ago it was most commonly known as american cane.

It’s almost exclusively called River Cane here. Probably why nobody thinks it’s bamboo.
