Why do corn flakes have so much sodium?
Asked by Wiki User
Generally speaking corn flakes have a lot of sodium because it helps make the cereal taste better. Sodium is a flavor enhancer that helps make the cereal taste salty and crunchy. Additionally it acts as a preservative to keep the cereal fresh for a longer period of time. In order for a product to be shelf-stable and have a longer shelf-life manufacturers typically add more sodium to their products.
The following are some of the most common reasons why corn flakes have so much sodium:
- Flavor Enhancement - Sodium helps make the cereal taste saltier and crunchier.
- Preservation - Sodium acts as a preservative to keep the cereal fresh for longer.
- Shelf-Stability - Having a higher sodium content helps make the product shelf-stable and have a longer shelf-life.
In conclusion corn flakes have a lot of sodium for a variety of reasons such as flavor enhancement preservation and shelf-stability.

What are the problems caused by the misuse of corn?
Asked by Wiki User
One example:
Large corporations such as Tyson make cows, who are built only for grasses, eat corn so the cows gain more weight faster. This certain misuse (along with neglect to clean their dung) eventually led to the creation of "deadly E. coli" which was not dangerous at all until this new kind evolved to ingest the corn the cows were now eating.
(Because Tyson has officials in Congress and government, this has not been made illegal and has in fact been encourages; even when people have attempted to pass laws after the deaths of their children, the laws were denied because it would "cost Tyson" [a billion-dollar company] "too much money")
