Cool Foreign food & tough corn!

Corn from Mexico, cantalope from guatemala or chile, avocados from Mexico, grapes from chile..................... Against my better judgement I purchased a 4-pack of corn on the cob ($5), from Mexico; cooked it the way I always do........ cover with cold water, bring to a boil, let sit for 15 minlutes. IT WAS TOO TOUGH to chew ....... so I put it back in the pot and boiled it for another 10 minlutes.

I would hate to throw it out and waste food! Any ideas of what to do with it? make soup? what else

I can't hardly wait until summer so I can get some local fruits & veggies and California grown produce!! (Sorry, just ranting!)
