Most American dinner plates have 6 countries of origin. If the NorthEast got hit by a catastrophic disaster, they would run out of food within 7-14 days. Sure, we grow a lot of plants, but you can't really call it food. Corn, wheat and soybeans just don't do it for me. I need veggies!
there is three types of corn; flint, dent and sweet. Sweet corn is what you find in the store and farmers markets. Flint corn really isnt grown in the US. And dent is also knows as field corn. If you eat field corn at the right time before it starts to mature (aka, before the glucose is converted to starch) it will taste prety sweet.
GMO crops reduce the use of herbicides, insecticides, and fertilzers. plain and simple.
Wow. I could not believe that their are Americans that buy into this! Of course they don't eat the corn they grow! ITS FIELD CORN! You can't just eat it! Livestock eats field corn. This nonsense is ridiculous!
That's part of the point. The corn isn't eaten AS IS. It's processed a million different ways by which it ends up in everything on your plate at McDonald's
Row crop GMO corn is destroying our nation. The pesticides and fertilizers. The water wasted. Deforesting. Soil Depletion. Growing TONS of corn just so we can feed cows, and wind up with a few steaks.
The horrendous physical side affects from our corn based diet. Corn syrup gluttony. Rotten TEETH. Diabetes.

ethonal will destroy our farming systems because it takes too much water to make fuel out of corn.
