It is widely grown for human and cattle consumption, as well as for biofuel and as a raw ingredient in industry. Corn is the world's third-largest plant-based food source. Despite its importance as a staple food in many regions of the world, corn is nutritionally inferior to other cereals. It has low-quality protein and is lacking in niacin. Pellagra is frequently caused by diets high in it (niacin-deficiency disease). Corn has a lot of dietary fibre and antioxidants. Cornmeal is a meal made from dried corn. Cornmeal is ground yellow corn that varied in consistency from fine to coarse. Most of the yellow cornmeal, notably that sold in stores in the United States, is made from dent corn, which has a high starch content and a distinctive corny texture. Cornmeal is typically used to make cornbread, but it also makes a great, crispy crust for fish, chicken, and mozzarella sticks. Cornmeal is either stone-ground round, which results in a coarser texture and artisanal product, or steel rollers, which results in a finer grind, removes the germ and bran, and makes it shelf-stable.
Cornmeal had become a staple diet of Native Americans thousands of years before Europeans first appeared on the New World's coasts. One of the most important ways they used maize was to grind it into a coarse meal, which was then used to produce pone, a flatbread cooked in ashes, drinks like Atole and Chicha, and Indian pudding, a thick porridge known simply as corn mush or Indian mush. Early British colonists then converted their customary "hasty pudding" into a corn variant known as Indian pudding, which is still a favourite treat today.

This is the main ingredient used in various delicious dishes in the region. For example, in Mexico, cornmeal is the main component of many diets. Masa is used in tortillas (staple food), atole (hot drinks based on masa), tamales, etc. Masa is stuffed with various fillings and wrapped in corn husks.
In Colombia and Venezuela cornmeal is used to make the maize dough for arepas, which, in addition to tamales, are packed with numerous stuffings. However, they undergo extra a resemblance to pupusas from El Salvador (which additionally comprise one-of-a-kind fillings) as they're comparable in layout and are each generally fried. Then in locations just like the United States of America, Italy, and Romania, cornmeal is used to make their very own delectable creations-which might be all various variations of a form of cornmeal porridge. The use of corn masara in Italy and Romania is more similar than in the southern United States because it was introduced to corn by the Turks in the 16th century. Then they planted corn, which resulted in them making muddy with their crops. In Italy, it was called Polenta and the Romanians were called Mariga, but they are made in the same way. In both recipes, cornmeal is cooked with water, soup, milk and cheese, herbs, or butter. Another delicious dish is plastic from Bosnia and Herzegovina. It is a polenta cooked with water and oil and is ready when the liquid evaporates. Next, top the plastic with a mixture of cottage cheese and yogurt and finish with garlic and a small amount of butter.
The main reason is that corn is a productive and versatile crop that accommodates investment in research, breeding and promotion. Cornmeal has incredibly high yields compared to most other US plants and grows almost anywhere in the country, especially in the Midwest and the Great Plains. Although U.S. corn is a particularly efficient crop, with traditional yields among a hundred and forty and a hundred and sixty bushels in line with an acre, the ensuing shipping of meals with the aid of using the corn machine is some distance decrease. Today`s corn crop is especially used for biofuels (more or less forty in line with cent of U.S. corn is used for ethanol) and as animal feed (more or less 36 in line with cent of U.S. corn, plus distillers grains left over from ethanol manufacturing, is fed to cattle, pigs and chickens). Much of the relaxation is exported. Only a tiny fraction of the countrywide corn crop is at once used for meals for Americans, a lot of that for high-fructose corn syrup. Yes, the corn fed to animals does produce precious meals for humans, especially the shape of dairy and meat products, however most effective after struggling with main losses of energy and protein along the way.
