Corn Cob

A corn cob is the central core of a corn plant, on which the kernels of corn are attached. Corn cobs are often used as fuel for cooking or as a natural alternative to charcoal in barbecues. They can also be used to make crafts and decorations.

Corn cobs are not typically eaten as a food, but they can be ground into a flour-like substance and used in some types of bread, crackers, and other baked goods. Corn cob flour is high in fiber and has a slightly sweet, nutty flavor. It is also a good source of several essential nutrients, including protein, potassium, and iron.

Corn cobs can also be used to make a natural, biodegradable abrasive for cleaning and scrubbing. They can be used to remove stubborn stains and dirt from pots, pans, and other kitchen surfaces and can be composted after use.

Corn cobs can also be used as a natural deodorizer for refrigerators, garbage cans, and other areas that may have strong odors. Simply place a few corn cobs in the affected area to absorb and neutralize unpleasant odors.
