Corn on the cob known regionally as pole corn corn
stick sweet pole butter pop or long maize is a culinary term used for a cooked
ear of freshly picked maize from a cultivar of sweet corn. Sweet corn is the
most common variety of maize eaten directly off the cob. The ear is picked

specialized skewers thrust into the ends of the cob to hold the ear while
eating without touching the hot and sticky kernels. The most common methods for
cooking corn on the cob are frying, boiling, roasting and grilling. Corn on the
