do any of you miss fresh corn on the cob home grown?

I moved down to Mexico and one of the many benifits is corn comes in 4 times a year here! They put mayo on it with a brush and then shake ground Cayenne red pepper on it! It's great! tdemex

Yum sounds delcious. We never grew any corn in our family garden. I don't think we had enough land to grow corn. We used to crow onions, tomatoes, peas, beats, and more. I loved having fresh veggies out of the garden, and miss it very much. My hubby and I live in a condo, with no room for a garden. Luckily there are a lot of farmers markets around, and I can pick up fresh veggies on the side of the road any day... including that yummy sweet corn. I think I'll go eat some now.

we live in a fairly large city in southern ontario (Canada) but we have a great deal of farmland around our city which is great this time of year because we can get a lot of farm fresh fruits and veggies. i have had some fresh corn, fresh cherries, and fresh raspberries.

I used to enjoy fresh corn that way when I was a kid. Minus the butter, though, that stuff is not for my taste buds LOL Now that I am older and have no teeth it doesn't matter that much to me. Shelly and Esme love corn on the cob though and get it as often as they can

We have been eating it a whole lot lately, we put in a big garden this year. and i have also frozen enough on the cob that we will be having it for about the next 6 months, i have also put up enough that i have cut off the cob, to add to soups, and stuff.

Hello Hartley, apart from in the olive grove where the olive trees grow, my garden itself only grows tall grass and weeds as I have no green fingers at all. They do sell fresh grown corn cobs up at the market though and there is a lady on the village who barbecues them on the street in the evening. She sells them hot from the coals with butter and salt, delicious.

I do when it is gone. I really enjoy it while it is in season.

I never grew my own corn, but I agree that some of the frozen taste awfully good. I hope people bring in fresh veggies to you guys sometimes. That happens around here. The inmates at the jail actually have a garden and whatever they cannot use they give away to the food bank and the Senior Center. I have a lot of good tomatoes this year and I am really thankful for them.

hello there hatley i live at the city all my life. never tried to live in the country and never treid to own a garden and grow my self my own corn in a cob. but in our market here they sell fresh corn on the caob. skin (if thats what you call it) and hair still attached. i buy some of that if i see that they are still that fresh. i hope someday i can grow my own corn too that would be exciting and a wonderful experience for me.

I miss that too! I could still remember my childhood days. There's a cornfield just a stone-throw away from our house. My sister and I were also asked by the farm owner to help him harvest the corn. Oh, I really loved doing it. The price for it was we can get as much corn as we wanted for us to bring home.

Hi Hatley, I have never had fresh Corn in the Cob but a freiend of mine has his own allottment and grows his own baby sweetcorn and they are lovely, absolutely so different from buying them in the supermarket...LoLo

I don't know fresh corns are fruits but i like to eat fresh corns instead rices in some meals.I like to eat the sweet corns most.

Growing up in Iowa as a kid we'd stay for weeks at my Grandparents farm, all summer it was get up early in the morning, go out to the sweet corn plot and pick fresh ears for lunch, and or supper. Two to Three times every summer it was harvest the whole field, shuck the corn, carry it into the house where my mother and grandmother would boil it up. We then all helped cut corn off the cobs, fill little pint bags, box and freeze it for the winter. I really miss that fresh summer taste in the middle of winter!!! With lots of butter and salt and pepper

its a little late for this discussion but yea i have tried growing corn, its actually supposed to be easy to grow, i had heaps of trouble doing it, no trouble growing hard to grow things though!

I can have corn on the cob anytime because we can buy it that way. It's not always very nice though...it can be hard and tasteless. I prefer the juicy, sweet frozen corn cobs though, they are so yummy. I remember when we were kids Mum would make stews and we would have the corn with the stew, sucking the gravy out from around the kernels. It was wonderful.

Good to see you back Hatley!!! I don't have my own garden, but I do have friends that grow corn. I love a good fresh. HOT ear of corn smothered in butter!!! Yes, I know it's not healthy, but it's worth the risk!!! Oh yes, a little bit of salt & pepper. Dayum, now you've got my taste buds wanting hot corn & butter!!! Guess what I'll be having for dinner???

Now I can eat the fresh corn on the cob everyday. In our local market we have fresh corn from France and Germany. You buy one and get one free. They are all very tasty. Yesterday my neighbour and I walked around an allotment around our flat and we met a man called Tony who was doing farmer’s work there. We talked very well. He gave me his potatoes and one fresh corn on the cob. I was very pleased. How generous he is. Today for my lunch I micro waved the corn in microwave for three minutes. It is really nice. I feel it’s sweeter than I bought before. What good treatment.

One of my favorite foods is corn. Especially those that are home grown. We used to grow corn in our backyard when I was little and I remember staying all day waiting and hoping for them to be ready for harvesting. People are selling japanese corn just about anywhere here in my country but for me there's nothing better than classic home grown corns. :)

I grew up hating the taste of corn and still do to this day...and coming from Indiana that's saying a lot. Every year my mother and grandmother would freeze huge batches of fresh corn to store for winter and I would always have to stay outside because even the smell made me sick! To this day whenever I have supper with my family and they serve corn, my dad will ask if I want some. No thanks, Dad, it's been 27 years and I still don't like it. You guys can have my share of the world's corn. Lol, I won't miss it.
