I agree. I no longer eat corn, corn syrup or processed wheat. I eat bread made from various organic sprouted grains.

In fact, the government subsidizes the people that grow this stuff and promote it's use through that incredibly inaccurate food pyramid that was foisted upon us a few years back. Not much has done more to harm the health of Americans than the food pyramid.
Personally, I can't blame the food pyramid for anything because I never really took much notice of it until sometime around the late 80s when I read a health book that was criticizing it. Anyway, back then, I was always interested in whole grains.
