I've never understood blue corn. I can't detect the difference in taste. It's true, though, that my palate doesn't seem to be very acute. My husband can detect a lot of distinctions that I can't; he considers me a barbarian on whom some nuances are wasted.
I can taste the difference in blue, white and yellow corn in that blue has no flavor at all, especially in comparisson to yellow. Although, I'm pretty sure I'm a barbarian as well. Fine, give me a steak, grilled and smoked over an open flame then. heh 0>;~]
If it tastes as good as it looks, I'm in!
ReplyDeleteIn fact, I haven't sown my corn yet....

I've had blue corn; I'm unimpressed. Now, if I'm allowed to pick out the lemon, lime, and cherry corn, and just eat that, I'm all in.
ReplyDeleteI'm waiting for the genetic wherewithal to grow that in other milieu, though--what a grill that would make. A truly toothy smile....
On the other hand, most of those plants are best eaten after they've been turned into meat.
