Do you ever reject corn because it doesn't look good?

What does "not look good" mean? Why would you reject an ear of corn?

Yes and yes. If it's typical yellow corn, I look for kernels that are still whitish, indicating that it's not yet ripe. A good test is to pierce a kernel with your thumb nail. If it squirts juice, it's ripe; If not, it's either premature or dead.
