    ...corn...its just gonna come out looking exactly the same as it did going in....

    Sounds like you need to slow down and chew your food thoroughly.
    Sounds like you should HGSB

    That's pretty high drag low speed.

    HDLS

    oh.
    dear.
    lord.

    I am so in love with the fact you just said high drag low speed... we said that ALL the time at the Mother I... only it was low drag- high speed.

    Shouldn't Corn on the Cob just be "corn" since it grows that way? And corn removed from the cob be called "Corn off the Cob"?

    Yes.

    The corn skin/kernel shell is an insoluble fiber. Even if you chew it very well, chances are the skin stays in tact. I looked this up recently, and even if you chew and chew and chew your corn, the reason it comes out looking like whole kernels is because poo makes its way into the kernel skin and it looks like a whole kernel. I'll post the article if you really want, but it's an easy Google search away.
    Remind me not to google.

    What you're seeing in the toilet bowl is the cellulose shell of each corn kernel. Humans can't digest that portion of the kernel, so it just passes undigested into our poo. We digest everything that was once held inside that kernel, though. So you still have to log the corn to account for all the sugar and starches that your body digested when you ate that corn.
