Too Yellow to Be Green Admit it America was way more fun before this whole organic sustainability thing got going

What are Americans made of? True grit? Sparkle and spunk? A hope and a prayer? No, corn. Corn and denial. We don't want to know the ingredients of our food, or anything else-like our houses, cars, furniture, or clothing. We like processed food products made with lots of high-fructose corn syrup better than we like raw foodstuffs. And we like plenty of plastic around, although we may not know that it's plastic, and 72 percent of us don't know what plastic is made of anyway. (It's made of petroleum.)
