Right now sweetcorn is living up to its name - it really is the taste of summer. Bought from a roadside stall or fresh at the supermarket, it's cheap and delicious. Munch on it pure and unadorned or try this delicious Mexican option shared by Viva's Eating Out editor, Nici Wickes.
"You have to taste it to believe how delicious this combo of flavours really is," Nici says. "Chargrilled corn, smothered in mayo, showered in sharp cheese and dusted with chilli. It's an outrageously good way to spice up fresh corn."
