Yeah what really frustrates me is that sometimes the corn I dont remember eating gets stuck in the drain in the shower. I have to fish it out at times.

Haha. Ive never understood that? Maybe u can shed some light for me. Is corn not fully digested or something like why is it always showing up again in the toilet? Does it just go through unbsorbed by the body or whatYeah what really frustrates me is that sometimes the corn I dont remember eating gets stuck in the drain in the shower.

Pretty much the corn kernel is composed of two parts. The outer portion of the pericarp is a type of coat that is seen in all fruit plants. Yes corn is considered a fruit or grass fruit by some. The inner part is called an endocarp. The endocarp is where the starch and the genetic portion of the fruit is held. This is most often what humans absorb and use for nutrients. The outer portion of the pericarp is called the exocarp. The exocarp is composed of basically cellulose and other fiberous compounds that the body can not break down. The same way as we cant break down whole wheat grain all that well.Haha. Ive never understood that? Maybe u can shed some light for me.

Chewing smashes out the inner portion allowing for digestion and absorption, the rest is basically bulk forming fiber that comes out as the mysterious floating substance we do not remember eating.
