Cook it all ASAP. If you want to store, cut the kernels off the cob and
freeze.


I agree. Corn just doesn't keep very well. Buy what you need (and try
to find the freshest source). I'm seeing "fresh" corn on the cob in
supermarkets now, but they must be very well-traveled specimens. Local
stuff won't be ready for a month or 2.


Nevertheless, I've kept corn in the fridge (unhusked) for
1-2 days after purchasing it, and it was quite good. I
think the newer, sweeter varieties keep in storage better.
