Garrison Kiellor did a bit on Prarie Home Companion a few years ago where he talked about putting the kettle of boiling water on a cart with a gas burner below. Then you wheel the cart out to the corn field and bend the corn stalks over plunging the ears into the water even before they're picked. That's fresh corn.

We live in an agricultural county of central California and it's corn season here now. Today is farmer's market day in our town so we are having fresh corn (picked a few hours ago) for dinner very soon.

Yummy!
