Sweet, Buttery Debatable Goodness, Whenever You Choose to Eat It
Moderator Katie: Summer’s in full swing, and it’s time for the straight poop on corn. Might I add that the following BlogFight is PERFECTION because not only is it making me hungry, it’s just what we’re looking for here at BlogFight. While fights of a serious nature are welcomed, it doesn’t always have to be so heavy, man. A nice, fluffy light and buttery debate is sometimes just the blogter ordered. Read on…
Paul from CA writes on behalf of his friend Robin. He sums the issue up by writing, “When Robin eats corn-on-the-cob, she waits until AFTER the meal to do it, while I consider it a true side item and bring it on board during the meal. She says it’s “normal” to do it her way. I don’t agree and want the opinion of the proverbial “they” on this issue.
Moderator Katie: So what is it, They? Vote Now for the winner and I’m sure we’ll all find the results a-MAIZE-ing (somebody stop me!). Polls are open for 30 days after the post. Check back to see new fights and the winner of this one!

Renee, I love your blog post about corn! It’s really a Maiz’ing (lol I love that) I have a thing against corn… and it’s that it’s been corrupted by America to be in every soda and sweet from sea to shining sea, banned by counteries who know better high fructose corn syrup destroys the body… but on the plate it’s a beauty to behold.

Hi from ICLW,
You know I have never thought of corn as American (I’m South African).
But I love the corn and prefer it on the cob. Either with the main course or to be eaten as a snack. But definately better with the main course.

That is funny! I just came back from a trip to Michigan where there is some delicious sweet corn and I so eat it right with my meal! Now that I live down south I don’t find as delicious sweet corn!

Coming over from ICLW…
Eat it WITH the meal, for sure!

Here from ICLW…
Sometimes I eat corn toward the end of the meal, but only because the cob holds in a lot of heat and can be too hot to handle. If I had cornholders, that would be another story altogether.
