Lend Me Your Ears For This List of Corn Puns
Corn is everywhere. It’s on the dinner table, at the movie theater, and served up in one form or another in just about every country in the world. It’s also a major food source for livestock – in other words, it’s a food that feeds our food.
All of that makes corn good fodder for puns. In fact, of all the vegetables, it provides by far the most opportunities for corny wordplay. Taking advantage of this, we put together a list of corn puns that will truly shuck and a-maize you.
