I don't think there is really good sweet corn here...or at least we haven't found it. I am missing Ohio corn.
The Micowave method works fine and easily removes all hair for the cobbs. Can buy some locally grown corn that is pretty good if eaten promptly after being picked. The cold water boiled method is no longer necessary and it doesn't allow simple hair removal.
