That's right. Notice the canned corn isn't in with the breads, pastas or other grains?

I think the whole grain council - the WHOLE council, not merely a few of them - are just trying to take credit for corn.

Corn is not really a food at all, it comes out the same way it went in.

All the major premium vodkas are grain, but it can also be made from potatos.
So, I'm taking it that I can have vodka and it counts for a vegetable?

Beer is like bread. So if you have a beer, a steak and a shot of vodka, that should be all your food groups. :yay:

Wait! Add Nacho Cheese Doritos for your dairy :yay: :yay:

Uh, corn is a GRAIN.

Not necessarily....It depends on what they are growing it for....some farmers grow it for people food(which is the vegetable) and some grow it for animal feed(which is grain)

At least that's the way it was explained to me by an old farmer down in Scotland :shrug:
 
CORN FACTS

Corn is a GRAIN, not a vegetable.

Corn used to be found on very small cobs. Corn has been genetically altered to be much larger and sweeter tasting than it was originally.

Corn contains a large amount of natural monosodium glutamate (MSG). There is a high amount of MSG in corn, and sweeter (genetically modified) corn has a higher amount of MSG. All sources of MSG could be said to be "natural" as it is naturally occurring in nature. Beware of "natural flavorings" in food, as they often contain MSG and other "natural" but sometimes harmful ingredients.

Corn fiber is indigestible.

Corn syrup is a super-charged sugar even more damaging to health than cane sugar according to a dentists, Dr. Frank J. Jerome. He connects tooth decay to corn syrup in his book Tooth Truth.

Corn and its by-products are in the majority of packaged and processed foods, as it is abundant and inexpensive in America.

Corn is not recommended for ANY blood type according to the author of Eat Right for Your Type.

Corn is highly allergenic. Some common reported symptoms associated with corn intolerance or corn allergy are:

Vomiting
Headaches
Ringing, throbbing or itchy ears

Corn is a perfect food because it's one of the only things you can put both salt and sugar on at the same time and it tastes delicious.

So that Eat Right guy doesn't know what he's talking about. :rolleyes:
