that black fungus, corn smut, is highly appreciated in Latin American communities.

I've been tooling around the idea of making a corn smut farm, because once you get it it 'll stay (in most instances) but that would also make growing corn difficult if I wanted to grow it in the future.

So are the guinea pigs! But further south and higher elevation than taco consumers.


Interesting. I had no idea! That is very good to know actually in case it ever happens again in a year I do have corn.


There is a place in San Diego that puts it on tacos. They're really good.
