I have purchased fresh corn from a few different local vendors around BCS and have been disappointed every single time. Nice plump cobs with ripe silk heads. Take them home and bbq them up, open the husk, and it's silage corn (cow corn, whatever you want to call it).Small popcorn size kernels that are opaque, tough and bland. This is the stuff used for agricultural feed for livestock. I was disappointed to say the least. The only time we've had sweet, yellow corn is when going out to eat. Even then, it's nothing as good as Peaches and Cream corn from South Central BC.

It's always kind of baffled me- you'd think a country that's staple starch was corn would be into growing more varieties.

Mayan people seem to like corn the most. 0:50 to see the corn stands that are all over Guatemala. https://youtu.be/N4evy_IMFKQ?si=2KhFHlD-k0y3JNhr
