About

Corn Is The Best Crop & Wheat Is Worst is a Weird Facebook page devoted to creating and curating image macros, photoshopped images, and videos that celebrate the properties of corn while deriding the properties of wheat.

Origin

On July 5th, 2016, the "Corn is the best crop & wheat is worst" Facebook^[7] page updated their profile picture, pictured below, to a poorly photoshopped image^[1] of a piece of corn wearing a crown next to wheat being dragged and dropped into a computer trash bin.

Spread

The page's posts did modest numbers for the first few days of its existence, until July 9th, 2016, when it uploaded a video of a guy in a car driving by a corn field and cheering enthusiastically until the corn field turns into a wheat field, when he begins to loudly boo and jeer (shown below).

The video, published once on July 9th^[2] and again on July 10th^[3], amassed over 8,300 likes and reactions and over 7,650 shares as of July 20th, 2016. The success of that post has helped the page garner over 17,000 likes.^[4] It was also posted to Instagram^[5] on July 10th by user @kornfan420 and gained 462 likes. That post was shared on meme aggregator Onsizzle's "Best Meme" board.^[6]
