Oh, my. How interesting that "offal" is edible across the pond. I'm thinking happy thoughts about sun-ripened tomatoes, and corn on the cob that you pick, clean on the way back from the garden, and boil as soon as you get inside.
And speaking of "corn," I know that the term once was a generic term for "grain" (I haven't tried to explain that to my three-year-old yet, although we have a book which talks about bunnies hiding in the corn but pictures them in a wheat field; very confusing for him) and I wonder whether it is still used that way outside of the US. If so, what is the term used to describe maize? Maize, I suppose. [puzzled emoticon]
