Corn Cobs are the sturdy, fibrous husks that hold nature's sweet, golden kernels. Originating from Central and South America, they’re an essential part of many cuisines, from buttery corn on the cob at summer barbecues to creamy polenta in Italian dishes. Rich in dietary fiber, corn cobs can support digestive health and provide essential nutrients like vitamin B6 and magnesium. While often discarded, they can also be used creatively in broths or as a natural smoke flavor for grilling. So next time you enjoy corn, remember the humble cob that holds it all together!
