Corn Is Not A Vegetable!
Argh! What a pet peeve! Corn is NOT a veg. It's a grain.
Perfect example of people missing the boat is as follows:
I ordered my fave salad to go from a local cafe (which I always have to doctor by asking for NO grain, NO feta and dressing on the side), and, much to my dismay, when I arrived home I saw that they'd added corn, which is part of the salad as per the menu. Not just a little corn sprinkled on the top, but a good cup of it, by the look of the quantity I manually extracted before eating it!
Here is a pic of said corn…
Yuck! I'm SO not interested in eating fillers!
