Dear corn on the cob

corn is so hot right now

Dear corn on the cob,

I love you, but it really hurt my feelings when you got drunk and embarrassed me in front of my friends. I know you were just trying to be funny, but when you made fun of my overbite it made me look like a fool. Still you're so sweet....

lol corn is hot right now

hahahaha

nothing wrong with corn like off the cob, either. but that's just different.

the problem with corn ON the cob is that it gets all stuck in yr teeth! but if it is already off the cob, it doesn't! weird!

I have had none this summer, I should rectify and with garlic butter too.

We've got corn growing in our garden, and wait patiently...

I was at this street festival all weekend and damn if the roasted corn on the cob booth didn't make a killing, $3/ear!!

Ned, I envy you, fresh from the stalk is the best way.I have happy memories of scrumping corn cycling round france.

corn on the cob, when you are good you are v v good!!

my cats also love corn on the cob!

I have never know of the right words for the little forks that you stick in corn cobs; from now on I shall know them as KOB-KNOBS.

> my cats also love corn on the cob!

I have a theory about this. Do they love all corn on the cob, or buttered corn on the cob only?

Also: TS - Corn on the cob vs. Cornbread

corn is so hot right now

corn is just getting warmed up around here

that cat otm

what's your theory, Oilyrags?

cornbread on the cob

My theory is cats like butter, not so much corn.

how are you going to test this theory of yours?

I'm not. One of my housemates is allergic to cats.

But if someone else wants to offer their corn-loving cat an unbuttered ear, I'd be interested in the results.

yay

I suspect it's largely the butter but many piggy cats will eat anything.

you could try putting some butter on your dick.

xxxpost: but it might just try to eat it anyway because it's conditioned to expect buttery goodness!

I've never had elotes. It seems like it would be tasty, but big jars of mayo sitting in the sun all day on the vendors' carts make me somewhat nervous.

bernard does "xxxpost" mean what i want it to mean?

that's about twice as much entendre as I'm comfortable with

my cat eats potato chips.

xxXpost
you have to get it form a "reputable" cart

I know a cat who eats tomatoes.

cats don't eat tomatoes unless you put them on your tits first, IIRC.

oh whoops I guess mine was really only an xxpost in the first place

now see bernard what you were supposed to do there was be confused about whether i meant the cats or the tomatoes

I had a grilled corn on the cob at a festival this weekend and then corn OFF the cob with garlic powder last night. I also enjoy the game corn-hole.

cornhole/!?!

(don't spend too much time in gis "cornholing")

that image explains nothing

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cornhole_%28game%29

I luv that the wtfness of this game has spilled over from the Chi threadz.

i saw dudes playing that at bonnaroo but i had no idea they were cornholing.

From what I understand it's like a combination of horseshoes and Bozo buckets?

^^the first time anyone has said "it's like Bozo buckets" to clarify something

Where did those dudes get JARTS???? Aren't those banned or something?

i think cats just like corn

Further mysteries: if corn is so grand and universally acclaimed, how come corny is bad?

Well, what about "cheesy"? Surely cheese is one of the world's greatest creations.

Indeed, and at the intersection of corn and cheese there exists chips with queso.

and cats luv both.

corn (1) Look up corn at Dictionary.com
"grain," O.E. corn, from P.Gmc. *kurnam "small seed," from PIE base *ger- "wear away" (O.Slav. zruno "grain," Skt. jr- "to wear down," L. granum). The sense of the O.E. word was "grain with the seed still in" rather than a particular plant. Locally understood to denote the leading crop of a district. Restricted to corn on the cob in America (originally Indian corn, but the adjective was dropped), usually wheat in England, oats in Scotland and Ireland, while korn means "rye" in parts of Germany. Introduced to China by 1550, it thrived where rice did not grow well and was a significant factor in the 18th century population boom there. Cornflakes first recorded 1907. Corned beef so called for the "corns" or grains of salt with which it is preserved. Cornrows as a hair style is first recorded 1971. Corny "old-fashioned" is Amer.Eng. 1932, originally, "something appealing to country folk."

Quorn is the leading brand of mycoprotein food product in the UK and a leading brand elsewhere. Mycoprotein is the generic term for protein-rich foodstuffs made from processed edible fungus.

That Corn Palace was the biggest Road Trip Dissapointment Evah

We missed it and Wall Drug(by 30 mins), but we did hit the Spam Museum, which was quite worth it.

i swear i thought that picture said "INVISIBLE CORN JOB". dear corn, i am sorry.

the thread title + initial post here is total poetry

and then i had to ruin it with corn smut.

pwnd and crnd

wait, corn smut IS the next level!!

:(

I happen to know some folks who swear by the huictachole(sp?) aka Mexican Truffle.

huitlacoche

Dear corn on the cob,

I love how I eat you, and then you come out the other end intact so that I can enjoy you again.

Sincerely,

Humansuit.

The harvest is so short...we only had corn from my parents' garden for a couple of weeks, but while it was coming, we ate it almost every night.

I totally read the initial post as smutty anyway!

But thats perhaps just me.

I have had 2 cats that have loved plain corn, no butter (with butter is fine too, but not necessary). One of them also loved popcorn (again, without butter or any flavoring, but only popped).

wtf is that hideous tumor corn that tracer posted

also sweet jersey corn = the best reason to be from new jersey

we call it maize

corn chowder is all sorts of fucked up but i eat the shit all up. people call me mexicorn.

avocado butter

what is so fucked up about corn chowder?? it's so normal in my family that we've made it our traditional christmas eve dish

I hate you for tainting my love affair with corn with that awful picture.

:(

anyone tried cat on the cob?

The thing that bugs me is that we are so racist towards corn in our society.

It's because of the Indians.

french people rarely eat corn and never on the cob - they think it's for animals! RESIGN FRANCE

The French are another problem. I can see why the are so weak militarily.

cornholin' keeps armies strong.

I once was so poor, like a month ago, that I went down to the food bank. They gave me a few stalks of corn. I got it home and couldn't get it to soften and tasted it and realized it was COW CORN, not sweet corn. Big difference, and thanks food bank!

had me some corn last night in honor of this thread! mmmm...good

Whoa.

I think I knew that about the French. Maybe they have been eating cow corn!

xxpost,

Damn, that's rough!

one more to add:

http://icanhascheezburger.files.wordpress.com/2007/07/ihasmanycorms1.jpg

i'm starting to get really irritated with cute pet pictures with "funny" captions underneath. LEARN TO SPELL YOU STUPID FUCKING ANIMALS!

hey, you can't blame them. it's hard enough for them to learn rudimentary english, much less proper spelling and grammar.

However, in Mexico corn smut is called huitlacoche..., an Aztec word reportedly meaning raven's excrement.

hey - they've been doing it long enough to make me angry at the very sight of the meme - you'd think they'd show SOME improvement!

"I am not an animal, I am an ear of corn!"

Damn, second pic in the wiki for huitlacoche.

seriously though, corn on the cob, how are you so good?
i am eating you right now and every bite is yaaay!

corn eating cat remains one of my favourite things on internet

Dear corn on the cob, why did my father plant only two rows of you this year? Not enough!

q: when is jersey sweet corn back on again?
a: august, fool.

Oh man my favorite thing on corn on the cob is butter+honey+chipotlew/adobo and a squeeze of lime yuuuuuuum

I love corn this year.

Do we get different corn here on the East Coast, I mean corn that is different from the corn in CA? It is so much better. Maybe it's because it's from the Midwest here.

I have yet to have corn on the cob. Need to go buy Doctors brand dental picks first.

The fresh corn on the cob that the BBQ folks were selling at Terrastock was fanfreakingtastic.

rrrobyn otm abt corn eating kitty. SO CUTE.

why do i like corn on the cob but hate it off the cob as sweetcorn?

dearest cc: why u taste so good but no like my stomach

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ne5olxXWsCA&feature=related

Corn on the cob gets in your teeth, man. Don't do it.

So does apple skin. The reward is worth the risk.

Oh, see now that's not fair. That's not fair at all. I have nothing against apples, man. I love apples. The corn on the cob is harder to get out of your teeth and it gets in between MORE teeth than the apple. It's a totally different thing, yo.

I just got back from my wife's family reunion and had some fantastic corn on the cob that was put up in 2005! My wife's aunt uses a vacuum sealer and that stuff apparently keeps forever that way.

Was it frozen?

It does get in your teeth, but that's why there is floss.

Dear Corn on the Cob - it was real hard cutting off your kernels for smoky corn chowder, but soooo worth it. Our dinner guests will LOVE YOU or else they're weird.

xx

Yeah, definitely, sealed then frozen. (xpost)

That was no banana, Dougal!

Dear corn on the cob fresh off the grill at the state fair, dunked in a vat of melted butter, lashed lustily with garlic salt...I think about you often. When can we get back together?

dear elote from cafe habana,

i had a really great time with you on monday, you're a fabulous lunch date, let's do it again sometime soon?

xo
joe

ps you can bring your friend, pork in adobo sauce torta, with you again if you like

Dear corn on the cob

It's been a good corn year so far.

Just had some good farmers market corn for dinner Saturday. Yum.

I eat corn on the cob from side to side; after eating to the end of the cob I rotate it upwards to bring 4 more rows of uneaten kernals to the fore, whereupon I proceed to eat those rows side to side. My wife eats it in a spiral, twirling the cob as she goes. I try not to look. I love my wife and don't want to lower her in my estimation simply because she eats cob corn by twirling it.

have you considered couples counseling

Yeah you gotta do the full row, like a typewriter. The spiral seems like it would throw off the balance when you're holding it in both hands like God intended. The side you start on will get lighter, I don't know, seems unnatural.

Kinda wanting to try the spiral method, if only to bring chaos into the household.

Mr Veg and I both eat corn on the cob like remorseless eating machines. Corn rules

I always de-cob the corn before eating, cob viscera is some of the most annoying stuff to get stuck in my teeth

The flossing session after the meal is part of the ritual for me.
