Sweetcorn tastes excellent on its own when cooked by boiling with a little salt. 

It provides more starch and calories than most vegetables.  It is a good food for steadying blood sugar levels, as its tough cell walls Dan starch resist quick digestion.  Despite its colour, it has few carotenes and little vitamin C, but has useful amounts of iron and potassium.  Baby sweet corn, fresh or frozen, is very high in folate.
