Corn : Two Ways

Way 1 : corn whiskey. Without the stricter regulatory standards applicable to whiskies from Kentucky (e.g., Jim Beam) or Tennessee (e.g., Jack Daniel’s), whether on content or ageing, this whiskey from Missouri — acquired in Osaka 2 years ago — was rather shallow in flavor and pale in appearance, perhaps what high-end moonshine might’ve been like back in the day.
Way 2 : corn chips. Though I do love me some Pringles, I’ve always felt a bit icky that the pieces aren’t sliced from whole potatoes but artificially shaped from potato mash — in a sense, Pringles are the SPAM of potato chips. However, as corn chips are made from corn mash, these seem perfectly natural.
