OK, I probably got you there! Not many- but I bet you've made your popcorn a few different ways!
The debate still rages on whether corn is a vegetable or a grain, but until there's a definitive answer, did you know that corn:
-supplies nearly 20% of the world's food calories?
-can be grown on every continent except Antarctica?
-has one piece of silk for each kernel?
I had some left over corn on the cob from our local farm stand, so I eventually gave it to the worms. I was unsure how they would react or how long it would take to start breaking down enough for them to start munching.
To my surprise, the worms love corn...and I have some pics to prove it!
Not only do they seem to like the husks and silk:
They seem to like the kernels, too- which have sprouted while in the bin:
There are more than 3,500 uses for corn...make that 3,501 if you count vermicomposting!
