VEGGIES

Authors' Note: 'Sweet corn', eaten directly off the cob, is considered a vegetable. Originating in Mexico thousands of years ago, the plant was widely distributed to the rest of the world in the sixteenth century. As a grain, it is known in most countries and contexts by its original name "maize", and is now globally the world's most widely grown cereal crop.

The author is a skinny guy, but delights, as does Rob, in consuming corn on the cob when it's available in the late summer. An ear of corn (unbuttered) provides 50 to 100 calories, so normal consumption is not a major contributor to obesity.
