What are differences between corn and pea plants?
Because corn is a cereal crop just like barley, wheat, rye, and triticale, since it is a grass plant which is capable of sexual reproduction which produces seeds much like any other grass plant species that exists on Earth. These seeds are harvested and compiled together as grain. The seeds are called kernels.

Hence, corn was made into a grain.

Is the corn on the toe supposed to be white while using a corn remover?
Yes it should be white. It will be white for a few days. If you are using the little circular removers, when you peel it off after a couple of days, the white, dead skin will come off also. I was worried just like you. Trust me. It works though. Your toe will then turn pink and within a week will return to your skin color. I've also tried the liquid acid. The same process will take place. You will see the white skin start to come off or peel or its own. At that point you can simply lift it and pull it off.
