SWEET CORN

Sweet corn is a variety of corn (Zea mays) known for its high sugar content, making it a deliciously sweet and versatile vegetable. It’s widely consumed around the world, both in fresh, canned, and frozen forms, and is a staple in many cuisines. Sweet corn has tall, green stalks with large, broad leaves. The ears of corn, which are the edible part, are encased in green husks and tightly wrapped with silk. The kernels of sweet corn are typically yellow (though they can also be white or bi-colored), and they are arranged in neat rows on the cob.
