I read your adventure of the fried corn-hubby would probably like it, but I have an extreme aversion to creamed corn going back to my childhood-I don't remember the reason I don't like it, but I know I don't. Hubby, on the other hand will eat corn in any way, form or fashion-I haven't fried bacon in a pan on the stove in a long time, either-I wonder if the corn will fry just as well in Pam or vegetable oil-it would be less greasy, but I imagine that part of the appeal of the dish is the bacon flavor.
well i could have not cooked it long enough, but the consistency is not that of creamed corn. the corn is firm, in the sauce that the half and half and bacon flavored grease form. I wouldn't bother doing it with pam or veg. oil, bc it IS all about the flavor of the grease.
