Great sign. My pet peeve is people who strip a dozen ears of corn and buy four. Are they leaving the others for me? It's easy to tell when an ear is mature. All you have to do is check the end with the silk. If it feels hollow and loose, the ear is mature. If it's tight around the ear, then the kernels at the top haven't matured. And I usually buy an extra "insurance" ear. Corn strippers should be forced to eat the husks they pull apart.
I only leave behind the ones with an obvious lack of edibility; I'm not too picky. Besides, I'd rather burn them, corn husks made fantastic fuel :oP rg2 On 8/26/07, Paul Stenquist <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Great sign.
