What's up with the corn fuckery in the US? What's up with the subsidies, what's up with Monsanto...

It's genetically modified and therefore toxic.

There's almost no non-GMO crops at all in the entire US.

No wonder that most of its citizens are either fat or terminally ill.

ethanol

I think you can figure it out

Did not eat corn in like 15 years, tastes like shit anyway.

You pretty much summed it up.
GMO corn -> HFCS -> Amerifatt

I dunno but grits are good

Theres a lot of corn grown in the United States. Giant fields of it. Almost the entirety of Ohio is a city, a forest, or a corn field.

The burger and leaf had a baby. They named it Corn Syrup.

Take comfort in knowing Bayers spent a fortune buying Monsanto, and they're now worth less than what they paid for it.

Iowa here, lots of corn...its all GMO, they have breed out the nutrition of it just for yield, the subsidies for the most part go to the huge mega farms...it was so cheap years ago they were selling corn burning stoves to heat your home. Subsidies need to stop so people start growing other crops...one bad disease and this country is in trouble.

This is a low-effort thread, but this is correct.
It allows oil companies to sell less petrochemical product with every gallon of gasoline (cut your product with a gov. subsidized one) which is why your "gas" is likely to be %10 ethanol made from coen. It also has a lower energy content per volume than gasoline so you have to buy more gas more quickly.
Also there's the ever increasing demand for corn syrup food products. Check your kitchen and see what packaged food DOESN'T have corn syrup in it.

Consume, America!

>what is up with corn fuckery
Its subsidized for a variety of reasons most of which are not good ones.

Not the kind of corn you eat on the cob though. Field corn is an industrial crop that is not consumed fresh. Its processed into corn sugar and put in everything, processed into fuel (ethanol or biodiesel) and used as animal feed for pretty much all types of farm animals.

Despite corn syrup Sperging if is this lady use (feed) that consumes most corn and is most responsible for how heavily subsidized it is.

>what about Monsanto
Big company that holds a bunch of patents for super productive and virile corn strains. These are super efficient means of food production (good) but Monsanto defends their IP rigorously which engenders a lot of ill will. Especially since their IP is a genome of a plant that grows in the ground and people dont like getting sued for planting a seed.

There is also the GMO crowd who have other issues with Monsanto but I will let them handle that one as I dont know a ton about their greivences since I'm not a faggot.

Corn

>It's genetically modified and therefore toxic.
DNA is designed to be modified, you behinderte moron.

Not by us.

Corn in the US is fucked beyond belief. 95+% is genetically modified and covered with glyphosate (RoundUp). At this point US corn is more of a poison than a food.

And it's in *everything* - every possible kind of food, cosmetics, toothpaste, even medicine.

After many years of pain we've discovered my wife is allergic to GM corn. Before we did she'd spent years going to allergists, none of whom had any idea of the cause of her random swelling and excruciating pain. "It's ideopathic! Nothing to be done!" they all said.

But once we cut out GM corn from her diet her painful symptoms disappeared and she was fine again. Note it was only *genetically modified* corn that was the problem. She can eat *organic* corn all day long with no problem at all. It's the GM corn that poisons her.

Interestingly (to me, anyway), the toxicity from GM corn passes through not just cooking but animal products as well. Cheese from a cow that's been fed GM corn? Swelling and pain. Cheese from a country where GM corn is outlawed? Everything's fine. Eggs from chickens fed GM corn meal? Reaction. Organic eggs? No problem at all.

Sharing this in the hope our discovery might help others, and because I believe the effects of GM products and the herbicides with which they're grown and harvested are utterly devastating America'd gastro-intestinal microbiome - destroying our inner environment as they are our outer.

This.

Doesn't make sense. If it's in everything and you only cut out one of those things then the symptoms should persist, unless it's the placebo effect. In which case, more power to you.

Oh hey this corn is big I will breed more

Vs

Lets inject it with genes from a opossums asshole to repel insects

Not the same.

>DNA is designed to be modified
DNA self modifies through reproduction, monsanto shills act like that is the same as splicing fish genes into a tomato, and niggers don't know any better. Do the monsanto food engineers eat gmo, fuck no; they aren't stupid. Go drink roundup.

Illuminati answer: Carbs are a cheap way to give your population calories. Corn can ALSO be a fuel source.
Shame it makes people fat fucking blobs and it's in all food.

That's a pretty staggering level of misunderstanding. Weird to think of a person like you living all your life as a version of placebo effect (being wrong, then drawing mistaken conclusions from your perceptual and cognitive errors).

But that Dunning-Kruger certainty of yours looks like it keeps you happy, so...more power to you.

p.s. I'm a scientist whose genetics research was partially funded by Monsanto.
