Serve Corn on the Cob at Thanksgiving

This is not really a recipe but a suggestion. I have for several years now served the small ears of corn you find in the freezer section. You can heat them at the last minute so they can be served hot. They had corn (maize) at the first Thanksgiving and I am sure it was "on the cob" not cut off the cob. My family thought I was a bit weird at first but they have come around to agree with me.

I like your idea! Serving corn on the cobb sounds perfectly fine to me. I don't know if you have a sense of humor or not (or if your family does) but maybe next Thanksgiving you could serve some items historians believe the Pilgrims did eat and with no forks ;-) Here's a couple of links to check out:
