Indeed. Is it sweetcorn mixed with cream? Is there an ingredient besides corn? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Kirez (talk • contribs) 07:28, November 26, 2006 (UTC)

This recipe from RecipeLand.com, http://www.recipeland.com/recipe/1763/, indicates that creamed corn is a soup or sauce made by melting butter and adding flour, milk, canned corn, and optionally some spices; also optionally, can be pureed or blended. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Kirez (talk • contribs) 07:33, November 26, 2006 (UTC)

I went ahead and added the above content. --71.56.158.166 (talk) 22:22, 3 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

In my experience, creamed corn has no ingredients other than the corn -- it's made by scraping the kernels off the cob into a dish, so the kernels are broken up and the cream is released from the kernels and cob before you cook it. I found some web references to this idea of creamed corn, including devices to do the cutting and creaming for you (we just used the back of a table knife to scrape the cob.) So what is this article supposed to be about: creamed corn or corn with cream? Lyn (talk) 04:03, 10 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have never heard of creamed corn WITHOUT the cream. Hence the word "creamed". Other vegetables may be prepared using the same method (creamed spinach, etc.) and all inclue milk/cream. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.222.27.26 (talk) 11:47, 27 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
