About One medium corn on the cob

Corn on the cob is a beloved vegetable known for its sweet, crunchy kernels and vibrant flavor. A medium-sized cob typically weighs around 90–120 grams and provides roughly 80–100 calories. It is packed with essential nutrients such as fiber, B vitamins like thiamine and folate, and important minerals like magnesium and potassium. Native to the Americas, corn has been cultivated for thousands of years and remains a staple ingredient in cuisines worldwide, from Mexican street food to summer barbecues. Its natural sweetness and versatility make it a favorite in both savory and slightly sweet preparations. While corn is a great source of complex carbohydrates and fiber, it is low in fat and cholesterol-free. However, toppings such as butter or salt might add extra calories and sodium, so moderation is key. Enjoy it boiled, grilled, or roasted for a wholesome addition to your plate.
