> Factual error: near the top of your comment, you say that wheat has about twice the protein of corn (maize). > Wheat actually has more than three times the protein of maize No factual error here. The wheat flour from which I make bread has 13% proteins, while the cornflour that I use has 6.4% proteins. It is likely that unlike me, you do not cook your own food, which is why you are not aware about the content of nutrients in food ingredients. The protein content in other parts of plants does not matter. Only the content in the products that you can buy and use for cooking matters. The 6.4% protein content for cornflour is pretty much the same in all brands of cornflour that I have seen in Europe. The wheat flour that I use is the one with the highest protein content. Most other brands have a lower protein content, down to 10% of protein. > Corn / maize: less than 17 grams carbs per 100 grams This must be a hallucination. Cornflour almost always has around 75 grams of starch per 100 grams. Wheat flour has a slightly lower starch content, the value written by you, 71 g per 100 g is indeed correct and typical. The energy content of the cornflour I use is 3410 kcal/100 g and of the wheat flour is 3530 kcal/100 g. Nevertheless, the slightly higher value for wheat flour is misleading, because the gluten is never digested completely and even for the part of the gluten that is digested, the body spends more energy for amino-acid processing than for starch processing, so the net energy intake is actually slightly lower for wheat flour. It is possible to eat only fat for energy. It is also possible to eat only carbohydrates for energy. This does not mean that the extremes are the best choices. So you should better check your facts, because the values are so far from correct as to qualify for "hallucinations" (i.e. "more than three times" vs. 13/6.4 and 17 g vs. 75 g).

Faaakkkk. >It is likely that unlike me, you do not cook your own food, which is why you are not aware about the content of nutrients in food ingredients. Such a pompous, uninformed, creepy, incredibly illogical and retarded statement you made, to say that, because a person does not cook their own food, they are not aware about the content of nutrients in food ingredients. Going that same "logic" implies that many people in your friends circle, your relatives, your village or city, your country, and the whole world, are not aware about the content of nutrients in food ingredients. Because a lot of people worldwide, do not cook, you know. Maybe due to being too busy, having others who can do it for them, being partially disabled, or being enough well-off that they do not need to cook, sometimes, or ever. But they have the ability to read ingredient information on packages. Is that not blindingly of obvious to you? And further, I do know how to cook, and do cook my own food - sometimes, not always, because I am in that well-off category above. So I don't need to cook all the time. And I enjoy doing it.
