Answer:

For a small country, Portugal has made massive contributions to the world over the course of its history. Once pioneers who discovered foreign lands during the Age of Discoveries, the Portuguese influence has spread far and wide. Again, thank Portugal’s role during the Age of Discoveries for bringing exotic Eastern spices to the Western world.Cinnamon is a spice obtained from the inner bark of several tree species from the genus Cinnamomum. Cinnamon is used mainly as an aromatic condiment and flavouring additive in a wide variety of cuisines, sweet and savoury dishes, breakfast cereals, snack foods, tea and traditional foods.

Probably the drug 'zebinix' which is a widely used anticonvulsant. You can find more research on it, but thats probably the most popular thing to come from Portugal that people heavily rely on.
