Cor is every where, from cereals to pop corn to corn soup. here in my place we love eating it, straight from the plant, we just boil it and eat it! we spread some butter to it and add some salt. corn is very delicious in so many ways. I just ate some a while ago.

yes. i am a certified corn addict.
my comfort food, in fact, is the basic corn on the cob. i like ginataang corn, corn kernels in melted cheese cornflakes, corn soup, binatog (it's boiled corn with grated coconut, sugar and evaporated milk. the best tasting ones are here in baguio. it's sooo good, the binatog stand itself was featured at this site: www.marketmanila.com/archives/binatog), mais con yelo, nilagang baka with corn and anything that has corn in it! now YOU'RE making me hungry!!

Hello pehpot.
One of the good products here in our city is corn. I like to eat corn, be it pop, boiled, fried or dried, or anything. I love the corn soup with crab sticks. Corn can be made into oil which can be used for cooking and very low in cholesterol. If I can't find olive oil or canola, I use the corn oil.
Aside from that, the husks and hairs of the corn can be used in handicraft making. Corn husks and hairs are used in making artificial flowers and home decors and bags. They are exported outside the country. Corn plant is really very versatile. Good day!

I prefer white corn. That I really love. I remember my high school day. We will go to the cornfield of my classmate and feast on the newly harvested white corn. Oh so sweet, the sweetest corn I tasted were from that field. Those bought from vendors are big disappointments to me. Even the japanese corn that are very common now does not match the sweetness of the white corn I tasted before. The japanese corn now are sweet but it does not seem to satisfy. It is still leaving my stomach hungry.
I also love using scraped white corns in soup.

We eat corn the same way as you guys do but we don't get to pick them from the plant we have to buy them in the store :)
It is something I enjoy eating but not everyone here likes it as much as I do so it is only made on special occasions . It is really nice to have outside on a hot day for a picnic .
Now pop corn is something we all like and that gets eaten quite a bit in our house . My husband loves pop corn and it is a nice cheap treat to buy that everyone enjoys .

I love corn products. :) I love the corn kernels in can too. But the best is when they are boiled. I also like mais con yelo.
Last weekend, I was on a field work in Bogo, Cebu. Our partners there gave us this "pintos" -- it's like a cake corn with cheese inside. It was really yummy especially with coffee. Now, just by the thought of it, I feel hungry!
