The other night when we were out, the kids were terribly disappointed that I didn't have any money at all. They wanted to buy an ear of corn. They've eaten the stuff more than a few times and they love it. And no, it never has made them sick.

Corn on the Corniche at Night
To the well-known and oft belabored divisions within Lebanese society we can add the following: there are those who eat corn on the Corniche, and then there are the others who roll their eyes as they issue repeated protests. That stuff is germ-ridden, sure to make you sick, filthy, they tell you. Don't eat anything those people have touched.

ReplyDeletesome of my favorite Russian food was from street vendors like these.
ReplyDeleteI can back you up on this one. My four kids love the corn. Don't know exactly why but they do. To me it seemed a little dry for my taste but definately no food poisoning thus far.
