Canned Corn (Open) is a tin of sweet corn that has been opened and is ready to eat. It is a filling vegetable with plenty of energy, and it eases thirst a little. It also goes into a wide range of dishes and into fishing chum.
The open corn stays fresh for 2 days and is fully rotten by day 4. The can comes from opening a sealed can of Canned Corn with a Can Opener or a sharp blade.
Eating
Eating the whole can lowers hunger by 16 and thirst by 4. It holds 315 calories, mostly from 70 grams of carbohydrates. It also has 7 grams of protein and a little fat. That makes corn one of the best canned vegetables for keeping body weight up.
The corn is good hot. Heating the can before eating gives a small mood lift. It is safe to eat cold as well.
Among open canned vegetables, corn is near the top. Canned Peas (Open) also lowers hunger by 16 but holds 280 calories. Canned Potato (Open) lowers hunger by 18 but holds 175 calories. Canned Carrots (Open) lowers hunger by just 12.
The table shows the game figures for one serving. Negative hunger and thirst fill the character up, and negative unhappiness and boredom cheer them up.

Storage
The corn stays fresh for 2 days after the can is opened. It is fully rotten by day 4. A fridge slows both counts down. As the corn goes stale and then rotten, its good effects turn bad. The sealed can keeps without spoiling, so it is best to open one only when it will be used that day.
Notes
- Corn adds as much hunger to a salad as to a soup or stew.
- An open can of corn works as an ingredient for fishing chum.
- Heat the corn before eating, as it is good hot.
- Eating the corn leaves an empty tin can behind.
