“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.
Lol. Well my dear abuelita was far from haughty nor had teeth problems. After 65 years of a cultural view of a food, then moving to the US - well, she had plenty of other cultural changes to take on. If she didn’t want corn, so be it.
I was taught the French also consider corn to be pig food.
