Micheal Pollan's book Omnivore's Dilemma does a great job detailing the many uses of and concerns about corn. I hear the movie Food Inc. does too (I haven't seen it yet.) Hopefully more awareness will cause some changes. Actually, corn makes up a huge proportion of much of our food, not just fast food.

As someone who's allergic to corn, I can certainly attest to the widespread prevalence of corn and corn-derivatives in the American food supply. It's frustratingly inescapable.
