Cellulous(sp?) is what human can not digest. And corn contains a lot of that.

Well, the solid part is mostly undigestable. The juice is what you can get from corn. Cellulose is a main part of most veggies... People don't have the enzyme needed to break that down like Horses. This is a biological reason why we should not be vegetarians. Not that there's anything wrong with that!
That's all it is, just the outer coating. The actual meaty part of the kernel can be digested by animals.Originally posted by: Soulbane
The outter coating is made of a material (I forget exactly what they call it in botany) that the human enzymes cannot break down. So it "Passes thru".
