Does the weight of corn make more bushels of corn?
Heavier corn ears does not translate into more ears or even more kernels. Weight has nothing to do with the amount or measurement of the corn or kernel and is caused by the density of the corn itself and the moisture content in the kernel, cob and husk. If you were to weigh 6 cobs of corn of similar length and then husk and take the kernel from the cob you would end up with closely the same amount of corn per cob.

The Wonderful World Of Candy Corn?
Few people have the time to research the interesting facts behind their favorite Halloween candy. It seems like one of those frivolous endeavors that isn't worth the effort. Still, the spirits of the season are well worth exploring when those few moments can be scared for a short primer on one of Halloween's grand traditions. Candy corn is one such tradition. You have George Renninger to thank for the three-colored candy. The 1880's must have been a grand time for candy because it's during this period that George was able to concoct his candy invention for the Wunderle Candy Company. Thanks to George's efforts, everyone knows of how great candy corn is, whether for eating or for decoration. The bite sized candies are meant to mimic the color of a kernel of corn, and in that goal they succeed. Each piece of candy corn is a kernel comprised mostly of those candy classic ingredients known as corn syrup and sugar. Not everyone has fallen in love with the taste of candy corn, but it's one of the staples of Halloween and can usually be found gracing the tables of those that love to decorate for spooky occasions. Its unique look is one of the reasons the kernels of candy are so memorable for Halloween aficionados. The three different colors make the brightly colored candy stand out even more, as if each section of the candy contained a different flavor of its own. This is an illusion, of course, as the entire kernel has the same ingredients throughout, but the color contrast For those that want a delicious treat and a decoration, candy corn fits the bill on both. A good decorating tip might be to put the candy corn in a festive Halloween bowl that matches your current Halloween decor, but to leave the candy corn open to be freely consumed by those that enjoy the spooky treat. The legend of candy corn is as deep as Halloween itself, and it will most likely always be one of the classiest icons of the season. You can make new friends today by putting out a large bowl of the Halloween favorite.

Candy Corn Is A Halloween Classic?
Candy corn may well be one of America's oldest Halloween sweet treats. The tasty confection dates back to the 1880s, when candy maker George Renninger of Wunderle Candy Co. is believed to have first created the classic candy in Philadelphia. The tri-colored novelty was like nothing else on the market at the time. Today, many of us can't imagine celebrating Halloween without a enjoying a few handfuls of candy corn. About 15 billion of the sugary kernels are sold annually, according to statistics from the National Confectioners Association. More than 35 million pounds of candy corn will be produced this year, the association estimates. Although many companies make candy corn, the Jelly Belly Candy Co. has been manufacturing the treat for longer than any other company in the industry. The candy-making predecessor of Jelly Belly -- then called Goelitz Confectionery Company began producing candy corn around 1898 at a factory in Cincinnati, Ohio. The process is handled by machines today, but it used to be a difficult task that was carried out manually. In those early days, a candy maker or "runner" would have to lift and carry buckets loaded with about 50 pounds of hot candy mixture. The runner would make three trips along the production line, dropping a small amount of the fondant each time into cornstarch, kernel-shaped molds. The process allowed the candy maker to create the white, orange and yellow layers of color in the treat. Candy corn remains a mainstay in the Halloween bounty collected by trick-or-treaters every year. If you're counting calories, candy corn might even be considered a good alternative to other seasonal choices. Although most candy corn recipes include ingredients like sugar and corn syrup, one serving of about 22 pieces contains just 140 calories. Candy corn has earned the distinction of having its own commemorative calendar date National Candy Corn Day which is celebrated on Oct. 30th each year. Candy lovers will be happy to know that the varieties of this popular treat are expanding. Candy corn is produced in pastel colors for Easter, red and pink shades for Valentine's Day and green and red for Christmas, so it now can be enjoyed year-round.
