Really? Raw? Well, honest to Dog I never looked for Corn Muffins at
the grocery store bakery. I bake corn muffins (sometimes with sliced
jalapenos), cornbread and cornsticks, at home using cast iron. No added
creamed corn, though.

Janet made creamed corn to go with a French Dip sandwich. She enjoyed
