    Isn't corn a whole grain? Aren't whole grains supposed to be good for you?

    Fresh corn on the cob from the farm across the street from our house is pure awesomeness! Corn and grains are not bad for you.

    I know better than to have meat, potatoes & corn and call it a well rounded meal .... but corn is not a "bad food"

    Lol. Well, if you are concerned with your glycemic count, then it's probably a food to limit or eliminate. If you are not, it probably doesn't matter. Although I believe it's true glycemic level increases the longer you wait to eat it after picking. I believe freshly picked corn (like that day) is much lower.

    With that said, most corn I believe is gmo, so I will only eat organic.

    Eta: and no one, ABSOLUTELY NO ONE, will ever come between me and my popcorn! :bigsmile:

    Tons of evidence you've provided supporting your statement.

    Corn is delicious, especially alongside a Nandos chicken pitta and garlic bread. YUM!

    This!!! Seems like for every food out there--there's someone who claims it as "bad"

    I see you're new here....supporting evidence to back your claim is recommended.

    The cool thing is that if it fits my macros, I eat it. It's also incredibly delicious.

    And...why exactly is it bad for you? If you don't have a medical condition like diabetes, it doesn't flippn' matter. Stop spouting nonsense...

    Corn is fine...I eat corn at least once per week and usually twice...I also eat potatoes and rice and all sorts of other stuff that people like you like to demonize and I'm doing just fine losing my 40 Lbs and rockin' my blood work. Climb back into your hole.

    I'll take one for the team and eat your corn. I'll also eat your bacon since smoked/cured meats are carcinogens and not good for you. Oh, and your tomatoes and eggplant as they are nightshade vegetables and they are poisonous.
