So after reading the first couple of pages after the intro, my mind was already blown, so that's what this is going to be about. You want to know what my first thought was: how much it would suck if you were allergic to corn. Am I right? Apparently they wouldn't be able to eat anything because everything is made of corn, or at one point is touched by corn, or has run across it. Technically, they couldn't even touch anything because all the gloss and coverings were made at some point by corn. CORN, CORN, CORN. Our world is over run by it, and I was unaware, so I know a lot of people my age and around me are unaware. It's so crazy to think about because one of my good friends is allergic to peanuts, and he can't eat anything that's been soaked in peanut oil, or anything that has come across peanuts. He has to bring his epi pen everywhere, just in case. It's just super weird to me that everything that surrounds me is from corn. The only time I think about it is when I have tacos, or Mexican food. Now, it's going to be on my mind, so I'm going to look at everything I eat and see if I can trace it back to corn. I love corn, especially corn on the cob, but I don't really like the idea of it being in other things I eat. (Corn flavored ice cream, what?)
Shoot, the world is a crazy place.

Interesting that no one does appear to be allergic to corn, isn't it? Not nearly as common as wheat, dairy, or peanut allergies. Hmmmm... what's up with that?
I had a camper this summer that was allergic to corn and wheat. I guess meat wasn't a problem for him though.
