I think the new rule is that any product which can be purchased without food stamps is chometz unless you take it on credit with no intention or ability to pay it off unless you get emergency welfare grants or a handout.

Seriously, the inyan was also grains grown near wheat, and corn may have been a confusion between the word Korn in German which is rye and corn in English.

That's why when a posek, the author of the sefer "Derech Eretz" indicated that potatoes should be avoided on Pesach, Alter Rebbe said:
"Tapuach Adomoh iz Derech Eretz ober Derech Eretz iz Tapuach Adomoh"
