WOLF: Foods We Love but Somehow Don't Eat Very Often - Nakusp Arrow Lakes News
Wolf says fresh corn is a rare treat, while canned corn and other staples stay in regular rotation.
PQB News editor Philip Wolf questions why beloved foods like corn on the cob remain limited to rare dinner appearances, wondering why such favorites don't become regular grocery staples.
Holiday staples like mashed potatoes, gravy, and turkey typically remain absent from weekly grocery rotations, reserved exclusively for Christmas or Thanksgiving celebrations each year.
Treats such as Nanaimo bars and Mum's peach upside-down pudding cake, plus Every Halloween chocolate leftovers, are consumed sparingly, though Wolf acknowledges they remain delicious.
After polishing off corn on the cob during a recent dinner, Wolf decided to rectify this pattern and increase the meal's frequency beyond its typical twice-yearly appearances.
Wolf plans to report back on his attempt to break his grocery routine, noting he prefers the "old-school typewriter method" of eating corn, gnawing row by row.
