The real secret to a healthy diet is always moderation. We say it over and over. Consume alcohol, sweets, and fatty foods in moderation. This applies to corn as well. Consume this sweet and starchy vegetable in moderation and you will be just fine. Don’t let yourself get intimidated with these scary thoughts that if you eat a half cup of corn once a week, you will gain weight! You have to choose your combination of foods wisely as well as the quantities you eat, but there is no such thing as gaining weight because you eat one food item once in a while, believe me.

There are many ways to prepare corn and you should take advantage of consulting this awesome collection of recipes we put together for you in our special corn cookbook. There’s never a boring moment in your kitchen, I can tell you that! Use some lime or lemon juice next time you eat corn on the cob instead of extra butter! Add a few handful of roasted corn to your salads or stews. Be creative and add these cute yellow grains to anything you love eating and sweet up your original recipes!
