With a little bit of butter and black pepper, I love it Smile

Yabvvvu. Sweet corn is disgusting! Envy (pukey face)

YANBU

It is one of my favourite things to snack on. I don't even heat it up!

CoffeeTea103 · 21/09/2013 18:24

Yanbu! It's simply divineSmile

Pebbledash??

KellyHopter · 21/09/2013 18:26

We have little sweet corn stalls dotted around here, you get a little pot of steaming sweet corn with whatever seasonings you fancy...it's great.

CaptainSweatPants · 21/09/2013 18:26

I don't heat it up either
I had half a tin with roast chicken for dinner

iklboo · 21/09/2013 18:26

I have to try VERY hard not to scoff the lot when I open a new tin.

CaptainSweatPants · 21/09/2013 18:27

Ooh kellyhopter where do you live?

sonlypuppyfat · 21/09/2013 18:27

You will see it again!

AmberLeaf · 21/09/2013 18:30

We have those sweetcorn stalls around here too, Ive not tried them though.

What sort of flavours do they have?

Norfolknway · 21/09/2013 18:33

YANBU

I can wolf down a full tin, straight out of the tin...no butter. Taaaaasty

Justonemorebiteplease · 21/09/2013 18:35

Thanks all - well nearly all! It seems I am not BU Smile

I wish we had a sweetcorn stall here! Sad

Thistledew · 21/09/2013 18:38

YABU - don't you know that it is corn on the cob season, and you can get fresh yellow yumminess, not just out of a can? It tastes even better gnawed off the cob and with butter all over your fingers and chin. Grin

Sizzlesthedog · 21/09/2013 18:39

I love sweetcorn as a snack with salad cream mixed in.

Classy me.

Justforlaughs · 21/09/2013 18:39

YANBU if, and only if, the sweetcorn has come out of a tin! It tastes so much better cold. Frozen sweetcorn needs to be cooked and eaten hot Grin

picnicbasketcase · 21/09/2013 18:43

A big pile of hot sweetcorn with grated cheese on top so it starts melting. Or corn on the cob cooked in the oven so it stays crisp, with butter on it. Mmmmmm

Delicious, both cold, and hot with butter, but definitely best straight out of tin.

picnicbasketcase · 21/09/2013 18:52

Oh, and it needs to be fresh cobs or tinned sweetcorn. Frozen sweetcorn is an abomination.

2kidsintow · 21/09/2013 18:57

Mmmm.... make a thick batter and stir in some sweetcorn, then fry to make Sweetcorn Fritters.

Lovely.

GwendolineMaryLacey · 21/09/2013 18:59

Love sweetcorn but not the super sweet vileness that comes out of a tin. Alas my teeth aren't up to nibbling it straight from the cob so I have to slice it off, but delish nonetheless.

Wherefore art these sweetcorn stalls btw?

NomDeClavier · 21/09/2013 19:00

Omg sweet corn fritters! That's one lunch this week sorted.

YANBU at all. Sweetcorn is wonderful.

AmberLeaf · 21/09/2013 19:26

I don't like frozen either.

Gwendoline Im in London and Ive seen a few sweetcorn stalls around, mainly in shopping malls and the like.

Catsize · 21/09/2013 20:02

Have snacked on this since I was a teenager. Always straight from the can, and always ho ho hoooo sweetcorn.
