I'm writing a book, and the main part takes place on a continent that is on the equator. I need to know what kinds of naturally occuring foods, and/or common plants are found. This is assuming the people on this continent have had no contact with other people and are literally isolated. So before Europeans brought over their stuff to Latin and Central America, what kind of things naturally grew on the land, than the people widly used?

Well I know that the Amazon is the home to the largest biodiverse milieu in the world, so please just list the main crops that were native.
It's gonna be a book, not an encycopedia. =P

Please don't say I'm lazy. I don't have readily available access to the internet; just a few days a week, and I don't think I could find the answer pouring over books that are probably outdated.
It's not helpful to me, and it's just plain rude.
