Which brand has good corn?
The can corn I buy is not consistantly good. Often they are not as
tender and sweet as I like. Once I even went back the next day to the supermarket to buy more of the same can corn which I found to be sweet and tender but it must have been from a different batch because it wasn't as good as what I got the day before. So. Do you use a brand that has usually tender and sweet whole corn?

By the way, it is "canned corn," not "can corn" I tried Libby's kernal corn today, was very good for canned but I think any frozen corn is better than any canned. Sheldon

It seems to always be the same quality and isn't 'waterlogged' like so many canned corn brands. Melondy

But nothing compares to good old Roasting Ears cooked over the campfire. Summer please hurry and get here. Vickie

So. Do you use a brand that has usually tender and sweet whole corn? I buy Delmonte exclusively these days. And I use a lot of corn. I like it for it's nice crisp texture, just like fresh corn. It is also nice and sweet. Green Giant niblets are good texture-wise also. Stay away from Libby's - they are very soft, not crisp. I also find frozen corn to be softer. I used to use frozen corn almost exclusively for the fresher taste but when I discovered Delmonte's newer versions I switched. They have done something to make the corn stay crisper when processed than it did years ago.
