I believe that:
Corn, what does it mean to you? Corn is in every fast food meal in America, in fact 90% of your fast food consumption can be traced back to a field of corn. You may think of corn as corn on the cob, but it goes into much more than that. Every fast food chain gets their beef from corn fed cows. Cows that are fed with corn cannot digest the corn so they are less healthy which means that what you are eating is not healthy to begin with. Corn fed cows have a shorter life span because they cannot digest the corn, much like the cow we have troubles digesting corn as well. The majority of corn produces is used for a sweetener AKA corn syrup. You can find corn syrup in most candies and soda worldwide. This is because it is cheaper and easier to get than real sugar, which means they can produce more products cheaper. Although it is cheaper it does not mean that it is healthier. It is actually cheaper because it is less healthy. You would have to pay a minimum of 16% more for grass fed beef and some real sugars. People are not aware of what they are eating and how it affects them. Back in the day corn farmers could grow 16 bushels each acre and now thanks to modified seeds and fertilizers the modern farmer can produce 180 bushels an acre. Corn can be traced in almost you eat which is a scary thought due to the fact that the food is being created with quantity and not quality.
