I would be interested if it was wheat etc, not so much if it's sweetcorn

I blame it on me reading too many yank sites, different names for the same things, thats my excuse anyway

bloody yanks, should just speak proper english xD

Maize is traditionally fed to animals, either as a flaked variety or in the form of cow cake, i believe these days it is sometimes mixed with silage.

i have been told it is better to store WHOLE GRAIN rather than milled flour as it is incased and less prone to wevill's, you grind some as you need it....thats why it used to be called "the daily grind!

Yup thats right Wheat berries have a massive shelf life, but for some they have to choose between milled flour or wheat berries to stop weavil infestation ,, Its a case of choosing between the lesser of two weavils !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
