Taking Sides: Corn vs. Peanuts

I say corn with greenish tint.
But peanuts with solid brown.

Alas!
My work is there and I smell gas!
It's what makes the world go round!

lauren was telling me about some kind of super corn-nut in Britain i.e. like a corn nut but even bigger and even harder

OMG CORN-NUTS! The most teeth-shatteringly satisfying of take-camping foods.

I think I may have to side with corn on the versatility tip, but then without peanuts there can be no pad thai nor peanut butter hence no peanut butter and banana sammiches. However, after this thing I read last night about how America's obesity epidemic and America's corn production have grown at exactly the same rate for the past 40+ years (specifically concerning the production of corn syrup for sweeteners), I may have to switch-hit for peanuts, as they've not been quite as instrumental in the fattening up of America.

After violently losing a filling, my dentist warned me to stay away from Corn-Nuts. But people have told me all kinds of things that I've ignored.
