One of my favorite things about late summer is the availability of delicious fresh sweet corn. Some of you may remember from past columns that corn is one of my favorite foods, and I especially love fresh sweet corn. With that in mind I wanted to share a few facts on corn. There are three primary kinds of corn.

Sweet Corn: This is the kind we eat. You may even grow it in your own garden.

Field Corn: Field corn is also known as dent or feed corn. It is hard on the outside and starchy in the inside. It is most commonly used for animal feed but can also be found in products we use every day.
