I really enjoyed this recipe. I thought I had some canned creamed corn for a recipe, but found out I didn't so I had to look for a quick and easy recipe. This is the one I found! YUM! I did saute some onion in the margarine first as we like onions. I would definitely make it again! I wouldn't be adverse to adding some bacon to it if I was using it as a side dish.01/19/10

This was a really good recipe, but the corn was still slightly crunchy in the final product. Taste was superb, but my husband really hates any type of firm corn, so I think next time I'll boil the corn to aldente before cutting it off the cob and making the recipe. We still both ate seconds!!05/12/09
