last night we were watching the news. [i know what you're thinking...i do watch the news from time to time] they had this little bit about corn being used for that new fuel...e-something or other. with more corn being used as this new fuel source, the price of corn is obviously going up. i believe they said it has almost doubled. well, they interviewed this farmer who was complaining about the price going up because he feeds his cattle corn.
PAUSE. now, for those of you who know me well, you are very aware of my corn allergy. i avoid corn at all costs because it is a quite painful process once i have actually eaten any kind of corn product. so i try to eat plenty of meat, and pasta, because those two things are pretty reliable when it comes to not having the corn in them. but this farmer feeds his cattle corn...and then i eat the meat! it is practically impossible for me to have a corn-free diet. why is this so? i cant get away from it. corn is everywhere...how many farmers feed their cows corn?? does everyone know about this? am i just unaware?
maybe i need to watch the news more.
