Sweetcorn turns brown when boiled due to the breakdown of chlorophyll and the Maillard reaction, which occurs when the sugars and amino acids in the corn react to heat. This reaction can lead to browning and changes in flavor. Additionally, prolonged cooking can cause the kernels to lose moisture and change their texture, further contributing to the browning effect.
