sock water...

I'm not one to throw away food.  Especially expensive food. Kombucha is in my expensive food category, at almost $4.00 a bottle it's a habit I try to keep an eye on my food budget that can sometimes get a little crazy. But every once in a while for an upset tummy it's a great digestive.  That was the train of thought that went through my head as attempted to drink my most recent kombucha purchase.  It was especially not delicious.... Imagine not so dirty socks diluted down by soaking it in gallons of water adding a bit of vinegar, fermenting it then paying lots of money to drink it..That is Kevita coconut kombucha. 
Mr yuck says don't drink

african street corn

While I have no formal training I think I make up for it with creative tastebuds and an adventurous soul that goes sure why not when out of needed ingredients for desired dishes (this comes from numerous kitchen/ingredient ingredient failures).. No.. I don't know if they actually serve street corn in Africa, if you want to figure that out Google it yourself.. I do know though that they do sell street corn in Mexico the land of many corny dishes like tacos, tamales and nachos.. and uhh.. other such corn based recipes..
