The Toxins of Corn Smut

Corn smut is an invading gray fungus that is considered as scorched to corn growers, but eaten as a delicacy in Mexico. It causes confusion, upset stomach, general weakness and other symptoms. People can accidentally eat Roto Dendron Honey - it's toxic if bees happen to be making their honey from Roto D Endron pollen. If you're growing corn in the US and you see this gray fungus on your corn, you're screwed. But in Mexico, they turned a bad thing into a good thing and said, well, let's eat it.
