I can truly say that I have never been as disgusted researching and writing a paper than I am writing one about the production and growth of food. In a previous course, I had to watch the documentary, King Corn. Watching that film alone was an eye-opener for me because it went into depth about how 80% of Americas antibiotics were used on cows because of being corn fed, but I never knew how drastic the food industry was. Now that I have watched two drastic films and read the chapter on Food, I feel as if I never want to eat food unless it is grown by me. With a growing population, there is a demand for an increase in agriculture.

Jenkins shares involved the things her family did when she was younger. Mama Nan, her grandmother, grew fig trees in her yard, which was near a field of berries. She would get her fruits and vegetables from the local farmers’ market in Luling. Mrs. Jenkins remembers canning figs and peaches with her mother. When Mrs. Jenkins moved to Houma, her mother would go to Dugas, the local market place, located on Division Street, to purchase her fresh fruits and vegetables. Mama would make a rustic vegetable soup with her fresh cabbage, shallots, corn, parsley, and snap beans; adding a little tomato sauce for color and some noodles for extra starch, Mama’s soup was the ultimate get well dish. Aunt Ducky made homemade pies: apple, lemon, and sweet potato; her pies made for the best of desserts. These days many fruits and vegetables are shipped internationally to our supermarkets, where we can find frozen pies and canned goods including fruits, vegetables, and even readymade soup. Though commercialization has helped save time, the quality has diminished and the title is still held in the traditional preparations. It is as if you can taste the

Cornbread: An American History Story Cornbread has long been a staple of many American family meals. Usually identified as southern side dish, cornbread has a long history outside of the southern colonies in America. The idea of cornbread was perpetuated by Native Americans before the first settlers arrived in the New World. The crude, basic recipe calling for nothing more than corn meal, water and salt has been transformed into a flavorful dish as it has borrowed style and spice from other cultures. These spinoffs have created a historical and commonly loved dish for a wide range of American palates.

Not only was Tall Dale’s crop the biggest, but it also tasted the best. One time he entered a contest where you could make anything you wanted, but you had to have corn incorporated in what you made. He made this amazing corn bread that he cooked in a cast iron skillet over coals. I tried some and I couldn't stop eating it. I ate a whole pot. It was a soft yellow color and had pieces of corn in it. It was light, moist and fluffy.

High fructose corn syrup is a by-product derived from corn and a sweetener used in a plethora of food items, such as beverages and processed food. High fructose corn syrup differs than table sugar in composition: high fructose corn syrup is made of either 55% of fructose and 45% glucose, or 58% fructose and 42% glucose, while white table sugar is composed of 50% glucose and 50% fructose. Although there is a small difference between the compositions, the body metabolizes high fructose corn syrup differently than table sugar, which contributes to a myriad of health problems such as obesity, liver scarring, and diabetes. Therefore, high fructose corn syrup is detrimental to our health and can cause severe damage to our bodies.

At the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Mary Simon, an archaeobotanist, conducted a study that disproved an old belief that flint corn (Zea mays indurata) has been grown in the American Bottom, a floodplain of the Mississippi River, earlier than 1000 C.E. Flint corn, a variant of the maize, earned its name due to hardness of the outer layer of its kernels. This hard outer shell is intended to protect the vulnerable endosperm within it. The cultivation of corn can be attributed to the rise of early complex societies such as the Cahokia, a Native American people who lived in the American Bottom. The study found that early research that claimed corn had been cultivated in the area as early as 60 B.C.E. had been based on incorrect analyzations
