Cornspiracy

Have you ever noticed that just about everyting we eat in this country has corn in it? Just look at the ingredients label. Every cereal has a substantial amount of corn flour (Golden Grahams-isn't graham a type of wheat?), anything sweet gets that way because of high-fructose corn syrup. Corn meal, corn starch, corn oil- is all this corn in our diet healthy? Is the surplus of corn in the US causing a severe of imbalance of grains in our diet? Is corn really even a grain? It's kind of a vegetable too. Anyway, all I am trying to say is that if you want to diversify the grains your diet, you might have to go to Asia (rice, anyone?)
