corn

======

Well.... "corn" as the word is used in the U.S. is that same thing that is called "maize" in England. Obvious things made out of corn or maize are corn chowder, cornbread, and corn pudding. The grain is also fermented to produce some whiskeys and ethanol-petroleum mixture fuel. Corn starch exists in some foods and some non-food products. A component of corn is also used in plastic-replacement disposable spoons and forks.

Corn is also used in corn syrup (high-fructose or normal), corn chips, nacho chips, corn tortillas, corn flakes, and grits. Other non-food uses are in the production of adhesives and some kinds of fabrics.

And, of course, livestock feed, the largest single usage in the US.
