    Yeah, it is a cheese that is meant to be in a melted state. It is acceptable in grilled cheese, melted in scrambled eggs, or as Mac n cheese, but regular slices on bread are..
    Not good

    I ordered a banana fritter from the Chinese takeaway last night (needed something sweet) and... it was disappointing. It was a okay, good portion, in honey sauce - but in a typical thick cornflour batter, no seasoning, and definitely not the same thing my neighbours from Hong Kong used to cook up for us, which were crisp-shelled and slightly red-hued and generous on the sesame seeds.

    I cannot find a recipe. Am I actually looking for banana fritters or something else entirely.

    You know what is like an S class ultra top tier late night snack?
    Peanut butter and jelly. Eat a peanut butter and jelly past like 9:30. It will never have tasted so good before.

    good. polenta is yum especially if you make is extra cheesy.

    Related story: before i learnt that all those american recipes talking about grits meant the corn kind, i had always assumed it used to what's sold as 'grits' over here, which is wheat-based.

    Mind you it still makes for good cheese grits, it's just not what the author intended.

    I will put anything and everything hominy based into my mouth. Honestly there are very few corn products I won't eat and I have at least two kinds of corn product in my pantry at all times.

    cornbread: good. corn chips: good. corn tortillas: acceptable.

    corn? awful. terrible. why would you do this. popcorn? the same but gum-hurty. bad choice.

    corn is a food meant to be used to make other foods, not eaten on its own

    That reminds me, sometimes our family will put whole cooked corn kernels in our cornbread. It is Good Texture

    Canned corn is the saddest corn. Creamed corn is Suspicious. Corn on the cob is best corn, use corn holders and special corn dish to avoid mess. Popcorn is only tenuously connected to corn but still valid.

    I had never seen the original version of behold corn before! interesting

    anyways, corn on the cob is best corn, followed by frozen corn and then popcorn. corn products are so different in taste from Pure Corn that my brain can't categorize them together

    there hasnt been frozen corn in the local grocery store for like a month and i'm sad, i rly want corn. it's such a good low spoons, chuck a bunch on a stove with butter and salt for 5 minutes and you have a time consuming snack that you don't have to feel completely guilty about

    As I have stated elsewhere, only if it is the kernels creating the extra mass instead of cob. a whole ball of husk is just a waste

    The issue with corn is the seedcoat or hull or whathaveyou

    If the corn is processed enough that the seedcoat is no longer apparent, it's fine

    Otherwise... No
