About Corncob
Corncob, the cylindrical core of an ear of maize, is a popular food staple with roots in Mesoamerican cuisine. While the cob itself isn’t edible, the kernels that coat it are rich in nutrients. Corn kernels are a good source of dietary fiber, B vitamins, and essential minerals like magnesium and phosphorus. They also provide a moderate amount of protein and antioxidants such as lutein and zeaxanthin, which promote eye health. Sweet corn, a common variety, is naturally low in fat and sodium, making it a heart-healthy option when cooked without added butter or salt. Corncob-based dishes span global cuisines, from roasted corn on the cob in American barbecue culture to elote in Mexico. However, processed corn products can be calorie-dense and high in added sugars, so fresh or lightly prepared corn remains the healthiest choice. Corn’s versatility and nutritional benefits make it a valuable addition to balanced diets.
