People of Corn

Hugh Morgan · February 2, 2021 ·

Like the Aztecs, we are “People of Corn”; since the 30s of last century, when scientists figured out how to make core grow bigger, sweeter, faster and in tighter spacing, so corn and its derivatives have come to dominate our food supply.  Corn products are in everything – salad dressings, french fries, hamburger buns. baked goods, breakfast cereals.  Corn provides 95% of the feed for livestock and poultry.  We carry its genetic markers, we suffer from the obesity and diabetes overconsuming the processed food that it supports.  And, we export both the grain and its food products around the world.
