I ate a lot of sweet corn when I lived in Iowa.  

Yeah, I know that most of the crops there are for feeding livestock - which in turn end up being a food source for people.  And yes, the growing season is short but it's enough to supply some of the feed needed for the cattle (mostly dairy) and hogs.

Farming is not just growing things to throw in a salad.
