    Somebody order that man a 16" pizza from somewhere:D:D:D:D. What would they do if you came in, in an ambulance needing the same job along with other jobs asap? wait for you to have fasted for an indeterminate period? I don't get the fasting bit at all.

    The anesthetic can make people very sick and if you have the tube down your throat you can choke.
    I always have a crappy reaction to it:confused:

    I was talking to a farmer that was feeding maize meal (yellow meal might be another name for it). What exactly is this. Is it the cob of maize milled down to nearly dust and dried?

    Cornmeal. It's normally mixed into other ration I think. I could be corrected on that though.

    Also used to make polenta which is awesome.

    I had to Google polenta. ... looks like scrambled egg. Is It awesome for the constitution

    Is it the whole plant or just the cob? I presume its just the cob

    To eat! It's Italian originally. It also kills ants naturally but I can't explain how that works.

    I can't answer either of those but it's called maize meal or cornmeal in shops.
    Tastes pretty nice as it can be fried in cakes.
    Yalla meal as it's called here.
