The silly way they connect corn to bananas annoys me, which you could do for literally anything, corn -> fuel -> lights -> you ate near a light ergo CORN! I do

The silly way they connect corn to bananas annoys me, which you could do for literally anything, corn -> fuel -> lights -> you ate near a light ergo CORN! I don't see how this is anything but good. Having a single crop for so many things, makes the replicator go brrr. Yes it's a single point of failure, but it's efficient to use food production to scale everything else and it's not a dead-end if corn were to have problems (ie Interstellar)
