    When I was a little kid my mom went out of her way to try to get us healthy food. This was back in the 80s. She had a neighbor who knew a farmer and they'd get fresh seasonal produce. Tiny little apples that looked goofy but tasted better than anything from the store. Shit like that. I can only imagine it has gotten harder and harder to find healthy things as time has gone on.

      A lot of food has corn in it. Animal feed has corn in it. I feel a lot of it is simply too much of one thing over another.

      That's not to say that corn alone is the problem. Carbs/etc. is a problem, just a lot of shit that you'd think doesn't have corn in it does and that helps bulk up animals/etc.
