About Corn ears
Corn ears are a staple of global cuisine, originating from Central and South America, where indigenous peoples cultivated it thousands of years ago. Packed with essential nutrients, corn is a good source of dietary fiber, vitamins B and C, and antioxidants like lutein, supporting healthy vision and digestion. Declared a whole grain when eaten off the cob, its natural sweetness complements dishes in Mexican, American, and Asian cuisines. Yellow varieties are rich in carotenoids, while other types, like white and blue corn, offer varied health benefits. Corn contains a moderate amount of calories and is low in fat, though it’s best enjoyed in balance, as processed corn products may contain added sugars or preservatives. Gluten-free and versatile, corn ears embody accessible nutrition with countless culinary applications, whether boiled, grilled, or transformed into tortillas and tamales. A delicious cornerstone of health-conscious eating!
