The name corned beef is due to a coarse salt used in the pickling process. Corn originally meant grain, as in a small particle of something, and referred to the corns of salt.

st patrick's day in ireland isn't as big as it is in the states.  sure, there are parades and drunken-ness, but since it is a national holiday, most things close so there is less to do.  but school is out, so that is a plus :).  i assume it is similar to mardi gras in france compared to new orleans...\n\nit's funny.  no one in ireland eats corned beef.  i had never heard of it until we visited america.  and nothing on st. patrick's day is dyed green - no rivers and no beer... guiness is too dark to dye anyway :)

Ox tails.  For all of you out there that don't know what ox tails are, they are beef (cows tail).  My grandma use to cook them and they were the best.  I watched Emeril cook some on his show. I have been wanting some every since. By the way they are expensive. Good eats!!

That is because the corn is covered by cellulose and that happens when you don't chew the corn enough so the enzyme and the stomach acid can't digest the cover.

Its the fibrous outside of the kernel that is in your feces.  You body does not have the digestive enzymes to break down that part of the corn.  When you chew up the corn and swallow it, the inside parts now become available for your body to digest.  The inside of the corn is where the nutritional value comes from.

The first reason for growth in any industry is that people are buying whatever the industry makes.  Cattle is renown for beef, but we still milk cows (and still eat cows too old to milk), and, despite good artificial alternatives, we still wear leather.  Beef may have its failings, but it is, or can be, a tasty source of protein.  Protein is nutrient dense, which is to say that pound for pound (or whatever other unit of measure) you get a lot for a little.  While corn-fed cows taste best, cows spend a lot of time eating common grasses in fields, making them a fairly low cost factory of food and fabrics.  While it takes a lot of vegetables to feed a cow, feeding a human a little of the cow compensates for feeding the human a lot of vegetables, a delicious trade-off.  When grain prices drop, as they have recently, it becomes easier, and cheaper, to feed a cow.  Since beef prices haven't been going down (partly because people are afraid to eat poultry, bird flu concerns at play), a few cows can make more money than a field of grain.

Raw steak apparently, unfortunately I'm a vegetarian, so I've never tried this out - in case my eye takes a sneaky nibble in the night!  I do have carnivorous friends who swear by it though.

Not a vegetarian.  I guess my answer as to why I'm not a vegetarian is: why would I be one?  There are certain things that are harvested and sold as food products that I won't eat, but I still feel like animal meat is an essential part of the food chain.  One limit on food for me would be parts of the animal that are not technically muscle.  I won't eat things like hot dogs, which have all kinds of odds and ends in them.  Cow tongue is a muscle, but I wouldn't eat that either, unless I was starving.

"cow's ain't plants" - liked it. Yeah, explanatorydoorhandle is right - milk shouldn't contain any starch, unless the company that sells it added starch for some weird reason, and that you should find written on the package.\nReal cow's milk doesn't contain starch (it contains the animals' equivalent, which is called glycogen - but it has no resemblance to starch).

High fiber, high fiber, high fiber, high fiber, high fiber, high fiber, high fiber, high fiber, high fiber, high fiber, high fiber...........  Am I making my point?  Standard american diet is way too low in fiber, with its refined flour and sugar products.  Need to get completely off the refined flour products and eat whole grain cereals and breads, and pastas, and vegetables and fruits.  Meat is ok, but not as the primary food, as it has no fiber.  Same with dairy.

i saw an america's test kitchen show and they compared mixes vs homemade, etc. it was judged that the "jiffy" corn bread was the best. it's cheap too.

It ain't the protein, it's the cholesterol. All organ meat is high in cholesterol.

There is no meat in animal crackers so why shouldn't they?

why would you dio that? the only reason we have animals is so we can have a BBQ. We are the only animals in earth that chose the vegan lifestile when given a choice. have you ever seen a lion go like "Hey Andrew, pass the celery." as Chris Rock says... if you are one of the few lucky people in this earth to get your hands on a steak bite the s&@# out of it

If there is a Whole Foods anywhere near you they have an excellent selection.  I'm not allergic to high fructose corn syrup, but I try to avoid it like the plague.  I'm able to do all of my shopping at Whole Foods and not purchase a single item with high fructose in it.  If there is no Whole Foods near you just look for any type of health food store.  Even regular grocery stores normally have some organic or 100% fruit selections that do not have high fructose corn syrup in them.

No. That's why it was "discovered in the New World." The oldest known corn cobs were found in Mexico and date back several thousand years. It was first domesticated in Mexico and spread to the Caribbean and Central America. But it was not known in Europe and the Middle East until Europeans discovered the New World.
