Corn on the cob? Yes or no?

Is it ok to eat corn on the cob--- without butter of course?!!!

I stay away from corn in any form.  Its FULL of sugar, and useless nutrient-wise.  There are much better veggies to go after if you want them.  

Corn is not a veggie. It is a grain, and not one of the good grains at that. You don't say when you had your surgery, but it wasn't allowed under my plan until after six weeks. Even so, I still don't eat it because it is high in carbs and low in nutritional value.

I was told to stay away from corn.  I love Mashed Potatoes and Corn and they have always been part of my meals but for some reason neither one look appetizing anymore, Thank goodness!!!

My plan does not allow corn in any whole grain form for at least one year.  In the pre-surgery seminars, we were told this is about digestion issues.  They made a really big deal about it.  So, corn kernels and popcorn were one of the biggest no-no's of all.  

I've had 1/3 of a small cob at a wedding the other week, it was fine. No digestive issues. I mean, I probably ate about 13 kernels all told. A bite after you've had your protein is fine. More than that I wouldn't bother for the reasons others have listed above. Too much sugar, carbs, etc.

Butter isn't the problem...it's the corn itself.

Corn doesn't bring anything to the table nutrition wise, so especially if you are less than a year out, just avoid it and go with protein rich foods. 

When I think of corn, I remember that they give corn to pig's to fatten them up.  So I stay away from that. 

I never thought of that. That is great inspiration to stay away from all things corn. ( not that I need much inspiration, corn products make me feel icky. ) 

I would eat the butter and not the corn LOL...butter zero carbs!  Corn...GMO??? all the carbs?? new tummy not so good.  And not even to be considered on my food-plan.
