It's mid season summer and the corn is going nuts! I was determined not to let the raccoons eat all my corn this season like they did last. I was sick of messing around and it was time to install an electric fence. So I set up a three wire fence. It was much simpler and cheaper to do that I ever thought it would be. It remains to be seen if I'll get a full crop of corn. Raccoons are wily and determined little creatures.

But while I was waiting for the corn to get sweet, some of the ears started busting open with wild deformed kernals--an infection of huitlacoche, or corn smut. But not wanting anything to go to waste I decided to see what it would taste like to eat corn smut. It definitely has an earthy taste and it was slightly bitter. But since I didn't have any corn to harvest yet, it was worthwhile making use of it. And it might even be more nutritious than just eating corn.
