Does it stay crispy? All the frozen corn I've tried gets chewy and loses its crispy texture (ie, KFC frozen corn on the cob). The kernels gets soft and blah.

We've tried that in the past and just didn't enjoy it out of the freezer. It's never as good as fresh.

Guess it depends on what you start with. Ours is locally grown stuff.
We blanch it, cool it, cut off the cobb, then seal it up in freezer bags.

Use it for soups, stews or just plain corn. Best corn you are going to get this winter, remains super sweet and far better than anything you can get out of season, at the store in a bag or can.
I've had some of this stuff in the freezer for as long as two years and it's still really good.

I bought 2 winter sweaters at a yard sale the other day. I really like them and they are nicer than ones I had in the closet. My rule is that whenever I get new or new-to-me stuff in my clothing, I have to either trash or donate an equal amount so that my closet does not get crowded. I am donating the sweaters I got rid of and also a pair of pants and 2 pairs of shoes that I don't really like.

Bought ten dozen sweet corn the other day and processed it all for the freezer.

We've been living off the land lately; garden beans, tomatoes, cucumbers, zucchini, etc. Picked a bunch of wild blackberries and made a couple pies and tarts.
Also working down a freezer full of good venison, fish and pork. Bought ten dozen sweet corn the other day and processed it all for the freezer.
