About Corn on cob half

Corn on the cob half is a classic, versatile side dish enjoyed in various cuisines around the world, particularly in American, Mexican, and Southeast Asian cooking. Made from sweet corn harvested at peak ripeness, it offers a naturally satisfying crunch and mild sweetness. Packed with essential nutrients, corn is a good source of dietary fiber, vitamin C, magnesium, and antioxidants like lutein, which support eye health. It is gluten-free and relatively low in fat, making it suitable for many diets. However, corn also contains natural sugars and carbohydrates, so moderation is key for those watching their sugar or calorie intake. Typically served grilled, boiled, or roasted, it pairs well with butter, spices, or herbs for added flavor. It's a wholesome, plant-based option contributing to a balanced diet when enjoyed as part of a varied meal plan.
