I've been doing this for decades.

That's a really good idea... for everybody else I know. Personally I consider it a waste of good corn to cook it. Raw corn is much, much sweeter.

I sort of do that, only I use Neosporin. Do that to my feet as well.

And sometimes, in the winter, with all the nose blowin', I use a Q-Tip to spread Neosporin in each nostril.

Oh! One more thing. Be sure to mark your calendars that there will be no Chanukah in the civil year of 3031.

It's a vegetable, not a meat. Eating raw meat can make you sick. Eating raw corn is delicious.
There are a few vegetables that are not good for you if raw, but corn is not poke salad.

I gotta get some of that paramatol stuff. Where do you pick it up? Best I could find was Groundwork (tm) and I have to renew that three times a year.

Perhaps I was already sick and didn't realize it. Did it once as teen and became very sick. Kind of hesitant to try again.
