Reply To: Why is corn on the cob not kosher???

tomim tihye – In the early 1950’s my parents took a motor trip from Canada to Mexico. While driving through Texas they saw countless field of corn growing, but could never find any on the menus of any restaurants they went to. Because it was the middle of winter, it would have been a real treat for them. Finally, they asked at one restaurant why nobody served corn on the cob. They were informed(with an extreme southern drawl): “Man, that is hog food. We never eat it.”
