Best Answer

corn is a starch, like wheat or potatoes. starches are actually "complex sugars", meaning they are two or more "simple sugars" stuck together. it's not as fattening as fats (like butter), but more fattening than vegetables. also, it depends what you put IN it you can check the ingredients on the label, the first item is what there is the most of. it'll also have the calorie content per serving size

It will depend greatly on the type of cereal. There are many that are high fat and high sugar that will certainly contribute to weight gain. But a serving or two a day (which is much smaller than you think!) can be a good part of a balanced diet. High fiber and low sugar cereals can provide roughage that help with weight control.

Chicken corn soup definitely can be fattening as most of the time it will contain cream. Ultimately it depends on exactly what kind of chicken corn soup and who is making it.

I have never made falafels, however I would not suggest trying to use corn flour for flour as corn flour is not flour at all, but basically corn meal and the consistency and flavor will be nothing alike.Corn Flour refers to corn meal that is ground at a much finer consistency than corn meal that is used to make cornbread, etc. Plain four is made for Wheat that is ground and then processed.Never the less, corn flour is made from corn, flour is made from wheat.
