Jesus, I need my eyes checked. And my mind. I did not read it as "corn" at first glance.
I read it as com at first.
Mental keming
One word: brassica. Ok, two: brassica oleracea
You can also boil them, mash them or stick them in a stew.
Sorry what are we talking about? Can you say it again, very slowly, and enunciate carefully?
Pro...bate...hoes
Don’t forget making homemade grenade launchers with them.
Corn has entered the chat....
I just wish it were nutritionally any good for us.
Corn is:
- Liquid Sugar Replacement (worse than sugar)
- Starch (higher calorie, difficult to digest)
- Cattle Feed (they also can't digest it, leading to gut rott)
- Fuel (can't eat fuel)
But I can down several bags of Frito Lays Cornchips. Honey BBQ Twists are the bomb. If they sold those in family or party size I'd probably have fatty liver disease.
Yep basically no nutritional value besides providing glucose. It’s why people in South America whose diet has been mostly corn and corn based products are super short.
(worse than sugar)
Eh, that's not settled science. It's terribly complex and we don't really know.
There's some research that seems to suggest all sugars are really bad for you, even those from fruits.
I'm any case, any added sugar is for sure bad for you.
Added or not, sugar is bad for you. You can get liver disease by eating fruit.
That said, processed sugar is worse because it is more easily taken up by the body and makes the insuline response worse.
Also, processed food is bad for you on top of sugars.
Tomato
And onions. The trifecta of going in everything.
Garlic?
Making vodka from potatoes (instead of grain) was so awesome that the woman who did it became the first female university professor in Sweden.
Edit: no it wasn't Martha Stewart you fucking idiot
Cassava/manioc/yuca: I'm you, but better.
Potato is not a vegetable.
the definition of vegetable is very vague. anything from a plant can be vegetable.
i personally prefer using words like root, leaves, fruits and nuts, but strawberries put that to the test

Strong Principal Skinner meme vibes.
"Am I wrong about potatos?
...no, it's Wikipedia, Britannica, Merriam-Webster, and basically everyone on reddit that's wrong!"
Is rice a vegetable?
Of course it's a fruit, the apple of earth
