Just curious and wondered if I'm an odd ball.

BTW, it was delicious regardless how you ate it

Remember the cartoon character eating the corn on the cob to the sound of a working typewriter... bell dinging at the end of each row, then you go back to the beginning of the next row and clean the kernels off that... and repeat that and work your way all around the corn, with all that melted butter dripping down your chin and hands? Well, that's me!

I didn't know there was a right or wrong. Just so you enjoy and don't forget all of that butter. Oh, yes, I eat both ways. Someone has to be different. LOL
