| Abstract | An examination of the modern corn agricultural industry, the filmmakers use a humorous touch to investigate the trends and market forces which are transforming this once-simple food. Through a subsidized system of industrial processing , corn has become something quite different and unexpected, a far-reaching commercial product almost omnipresent in modern life. |
