You have to worry about the steriods and antibiotics that are given to the animals, not necessarily what they eat unless the food is loaded with pesticides. And this whole thread was about how HFCS was getting people fat. It really isn't. Its the enriched flour products and starches combined with no or little exercise. Pastas, tortilla and bread. Garbage IMO. |
Pound for pound, bread is better than HFCS. Especially if it's good bread like stone-ground or pumpernickel (not cheap shit like Wonder)

Try to stay with me, I expanded the topic of conversation to corn in general, and how it is super saturated every corner of the food industry, not just HFCS. Sometimes conversations deviate a little bit. I thought that was pretty clear, but maybe not.

We get it. The problem with corn, as it were, is that it's so tied up in government and it's being used instead of many other sources. It's like our dependance on oil. It's not great. :idk:

They don't digest it as well and it can lead to health issues, even death. To compensate, those cattle are often pumped full of steriods, antibiotics, etc. |
Technically, Corn is a grass.
This is why cows can survive on it, for some time. It's also why it can grow in very tight proximity to other stalks, hence, more profit / sq foot. When they are put on the corn feed, it produces so much acid that it will literally melt a whole in the side of a cow, where on could reach in and remove stomach contents. |
