Crazy colors ~ Is it good to eat corn?

Here is another addition to  crazy color challenge. Today I walked through a nearby field. I felt like I was walking a maze. This year, farmers have planted a huge amount of corn. Corn, in general, is considered one of the most famous cereals, originating in South America, more specifically from the Peruvian highlands. It was brought to the European continent by Christopher Columbus, and due to its fertility and versatility, it has expanded rapidly in Europe. Corn is one of the most important crop plants, many times in history it has been credited with the survival of much of humanity. Corn is a healthy and whole food and contains many nutrients. Corn is a surprisingly rich source of antioxidants, proteins, vitamins B, C and E and manganese, magnesium and zinc.

  1. I really like the photo with the path! ?
    Yes, I see many corn fields in my area. We eat a lot of polenta (corn porridge) in Northern Italy. Well, we used to eat a lot, it was the staple food back in time. ?
