    Default very random and dumb question about corn.

    when you eat corn, why does it come out when you go to the bathroom?
    is it totally worthless as far as nutritional value is concerned?
    is it just something to make you feel full?
    whats the deal here? im 100% serious....

    There is a lot of nutrittion in corn, you body just doesnt absorb (sp?) it. Eat Creamed corn and your body will get more of the nutrients. Thats just the way corn is man.
    I'm just that guy that spends all his time printing.... T-shirts, banners, vinyl, etc.

    When we chew corn, the outer coating slips off the inner kernal. This outer yellow coating is almost entirely cellulose, and is indigestible. It passes through the gut untouched, and emerges looking like a whole kernal, although it is mostly just the outer skin. The inside of the kernal is starchy and digestible, and that is the part that we succeed in chewing up.
