Descendants of the Maya living in Mexico still sometimes refer to themselves as “the corn people.” The phrase is not intended as metaphor. Rather, it’s meant to their abiding dependence on this miraculous grass, the of their diet for almost 9,000 years. Forty percent of the calories a Mexican eats in a day comes directly corn, most of it in the form of tortillas. So when a Mexican says I am maize or corn walking, it is simply a statement of fact: The very substance of the Mexicans body is to a considerable extent a of this plant.
