Well, you've received lots of good suggestions so far. I certainly enjoy
relishes on sandwiches with meats and cheese.

Now, given the differences I've seen over the years between foodstuffs in
the US and here, I'll not make any assumptions that your corn relish is
similar to what I might buy here. This is the sort of thing you'd find in
the supermarket here - http://tinyurl.com/cjbfaz

A fairly common use of this is to make corn relish dip - mix corn relish
with sour cream. Nice with corn chips.
