It’s raining here. I thought we could use a funny post.
I was at a BBQ party last weekend for Father’s Day. While I was eating my corn, someone said, “How are YOU eating your corn?”
I said, “What do you mean?”
He said, “You’re eating your corn in a row.”
Yes, I said, “What’s the problem. I’ve always eaten my corn this way.”
He laughed and said, “Look how I eat my corn — in a circle.”
We both laughed. Incredible. That made me think.
Is there a right way to eat corn? Do people in different parts of the country eat their corn differently?
I’m curious now. HOW do YOU eat YOUR corn?
Brilliant Viewpoint 
If you really must know, the top one. I was raised in the Mid-Atlantic

Interesting! I’m trying to think if I was taught how to eat corn or just automatically went to the bottom one, side to side. Hum.

Like Danny, I was raised in the Mid Atlantic (Like, Delaware, THE Mid-Atlantic), and I eat mine in a row.

This is so interesting! I was raised in the Mid-West, but my mother is Italian, so wondering about this now.

Almost-lifelong Hoosier here. One row across (like photo 2) to clear a good starting line for vertical bites like photo 1 the rest of the way.

I’m on the team row. I have a friend who cuts it all of the cob!

LOL, cutting it off the cob seems like so much work, but I guess than it is fresh versus out of the can.

It seems to defeat the point of corn on the cob.

I eat my corn in lines too. My husband takes cream from a jar from around the the sides and I dig a hole in the middle.

This is so amusing. I had never thought about all the possibilities.

How funny! And what a fun conversation you’ve started. I never thought about this. Though I used to eat corn on the cob frequently, I haven’t had it in many years… I was some of both, and unsystematic. LOL, all over the place, just like I am in so many other things. No one ever instructed me in corn-eating. 🙂 Hugs.
