Finding Out How Many Corn Ears Are in a Can of Corn

Reverse Engineering Canned Corn

Food investigator Curiosityandbeyond quite cleverly reverse-engineered canned corn to see how many ears were inside the can. They placed the kernels onto empty corn cob slots and as it turns out, there are two ears worth of corn packed into a can of corn.

I was curious to know how many corn cobs and corn kernels contained in one canned sweet corn can. So, today i’m inserting canned sweet corn kernels back on the cob.
