Yes, from an 'elotero' in an area we called "little Mexico". It was good, and the street vendor was well known to people there. Sadly, he was shot and killed.

yup, it´s pretty great, try it with lime and chili powder, or sour cream, a spread of mayo and grated cheese if you are not into spicy flavors.
I prefer the corn in a cup presentation thou just because i´m a bit lazy and choose to use a spoon instead of chomping down the cob 😹

@N00dle I’ve seen this at a flea market where I sold stuff for a while with Mexican families walking around carrying them and eating it with a spoon.

@cherokeepatti If you haven´t yet, give it a try, you won´t regret it 😁

Nope. I've heard about it, and I've seen it on cooking shows, but corn is big carbs, and it's not on my new diet, unfortunately. 😟

I have had it in a cup, but never like that. I hope you get to one day and you enjoy it.
