The simple things are often the best.

My original post was, 'Whatever, man. What the fuck ever.'
Instead, I see an amazing business opportunity: G2F Coastal Delivery. Maaan, I'd pay extra for a service like that.
 
I can't eat six ears of corn in one sitting.

I got my first fresh sweet corn of the season Friday and cooked six ears. I love corn. If there were only one vegetable in the world I would want it to be corn. I love corn, corn on the cob, creamed corn, corn chowder, popped corn, corn chips, corn tortillas, corn silk (powder,) and corn whiskey.

I cooked my corn, put it on a plate, sliced a stick of butter to melt over it, salted and cracked some pepper on it. Ready, set, go but I walked away calling no mas after just four and a half ears. I came back after about two hours for round two. I swirled the cobs around in the mix of corn juices and butter and bit in.

Wow! It tasted just like cannabutter. Not as strong but definitely like cannabutter. Hm. So I googled does corn have terpenes and the answer is yes. There were lots of long names and chemical formulae I didn't understand (Damn it Jim I'm a physicist not a chemical engineer) so I popped open a chatGPT session to let it sort things out. It turns out that corn has many identical terpenes identical to cannabis! I had to torture chatGPT to give me a straight answer (so you don't have to.) Here's the list of cannabis terpenes also found in corn:

Myrcene
Limonene
Terpinolene
Beta-Caryophyllene
Linalool
Phytol
Geraniol
Alpha-Pinene
Beta-Pinene

No wonder I love corn! I also love that I wonder things and that today's technology let's me find out why.

No kidding the corn i've got this year is the bomb diggity sweeter than last years. I'm gonna try and get some going next year i did'nt get the soil in time for 2 of my raised beds. I go to our local farmstand .50cent a ear. OK OK here comes another true story about a corn thief ( me :) ) 12yrs old me an my cousins stole corn from a field near their house an farmer came out with a shot gun full of rock salt loads. He did'nt hit us but he sure taught us a lesson LOL. He told us he'd put bebe shot next time!! Did'nt try it again with him, but we did jerk a watermelon from another farm......am i gonna go to hell?? LOL
 
Hmm... I don't drink. But I loves me some artificially flavored, high-fructose corn syrup Fun-Pops in a rainbow of FD&C food dyes, I do!
 
Yep. Had an old time farmer up the road when I was a kid that used to sell his stuff out of his truck. Used to stop by and give the family extras. What neighbors used to do back then. Used to tell all kinds of stories in the driveway. Told my dad the same thing. Start the water before we'd stop for corn. He'd pick it and shuck it for us and we'd cook it within minutes. Still has family running the farm. Still good but they're catering to the yuppy crowd now with hay rides and fake pumpkin picking.
 
Soak in water for 20 min with all the husk and then grill on med low till black on both sides....Inside has some caramelized kernels and it so good with lemon pepper and Butter...Wife lost her crown last week while indulging on fresh corn....dentist put it back on but told her to cut the kernels off next time...
