Corn’s Conquest I can 't say that I had thoughts about corn before this chapter. I just ate my chicken nuggets, and basically anything and everything with corn in it, without a care in the world. As an American I usually don 't think about what I am eating or look at all the ingredients. I never put much thought in the early American diet. Ordering chicken nuggets from McDonalds is not a foreign concept to say the least.

In order to solve food insecurity, potatoes could be grown instead of rice, and this would be beneficial because potatoes are much more resilient to environmental shock, and provide much more nutritional value. Another less likely solution would be to introduce genetically modified rice. This would mean that much less rice would be lost due to summer flooding. Map of East Asia.
