@ben61820, I doubt that the poster's objective was to amuse you. I do not want grammar and spelling to distract from the questioner's intent. – Ed♦ Aug 17 2011 at 0:21

I would recommend avoiding canned food due to BPA contamination, poor quality etc. But if you need to for some reason - any foods on this list http://lowcarbdiets.about.com/od/whattoeat/a/whatveg.htm are non-starchy whether canned or not (provided they don't have other things like sauces added). Down at the bottom of that link is a list of starchy vegetables. Sweet corn and sweet peas both have starch, and sweet corn is a grain.

I would like to know about starchy canned foods
