If you attempt to cook ripe maize as sweetcorn, it will take ages

reach that stage in the UK, as we don't get enough sun. Germany
gets slightly more, as may be seen by the superiority of German
wines to English ones.

Normalised to equal cultivated areas, English wines win far more

first
prizes at blind tastings than German wines do.


In England or in Germany or elsewhere?


In international exhibition-cum-tasting events..
