My mother loved corn, but also said of it, “Corn is what they feed pigs.”

That's the consensus in Germany. You won't find it as a side dish on the menu there, and you'll get no takers at a BBQ or shrimp boil here.

IIRC, during one of the African famines, we sent over a lot of maize. The Africans basically said, “No thanks, we’d rather starve than eat animal food.”
