 **Do You Have A Sweet Tooth?  ** Corn and sorghum are two of Venezuela's staple foods. Corn is grown in the cooler, humid areas of Venezuela and sorghum is grown in the hot and dry areas. Sorghum is used for both sweetener and for feeding livestock. Corn comes in different types such as yellow corn used for feeding livestock, white corn used for human purposes, and corn is also used for flour. The corn and sorghum plants look similar to each other but sorghum has finer roots. You can also find corn and sorghum in markets in the United States and Mexico.
