As one of America's top cereal grains, corn is sprinkled into our food system in sneaky ways. Corn has been processed into a sweetener, an oil, a flour, and is used as one of the main feeds for livestock. But if you eat corn by itself, it's still a healthy vegetable, right?

Avoid seed oils like corn oil.
They’ll kill you early.

Otherwise whole grain corn is a healthy food.

Corn won’t grow at all on Rocky Top
Dirt’s too rocky by far
That’s why all the folks on Rocky Top
Get their corn from a jar...

I’m 74 and doing fine on corn and oils. Still got all my teeth! Brain is still sharp. I can still remember things in my youth from 71 years ago!

“My grandmother would not eat corn. In Spain it is pigs food.”

I knew a haughty Dutch woman who’d stick her nose up in the air and refuse to eat an ear of corn at a barbecue place, saying it was cows’ food. Turned out she had denture problems.

This is pretty funny. The property across the road from me is covered with about 40 acres of feeder corn every year. And here I sit with two hollers and two streams on 32 acres. And I live in Kentucky, within 30 miles of Makers Mark, Jim Beam, Heaven Hills, etc.

Hmmm... What to do...

I still remember that old song! One of my favorites from around 1968.

Once two strangers climbed Ol’ Rocky Top,
Looking for a moonshine still.
Strangers ain’t come down from Rocky Top,
Recon they never will.

Had a girl once on Rocky Top,
Half bear the other half cat.
Wild as a mink and sweet as soda pop,
I still dream about that!
