When you shop for corn on the cob, do you pull down the husk before you
buy it to look inside?
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?


Just buy it fresh from the neighbours stand ...
any modern road-side stand will have good fresh corn -
no need to check.,
Many years ago, when charged with getting corn for
The Family Rebellion - we picked-our-own, without checking -
and discovered a lot of worms .. we just cut out the bad parts &
it was ok .. I have never seen that in any farm-stands.
The other thing to check for is freshness - do the kernels look
bursting with freshness ? or a little limp ?
We would almost never buy from a grocery store.
