This recipe looks great, but I'll have to see if my local grocery store has all the ingredients.

I'm not a big fan of corn, but I might be willing to try this salad if I can find some fresh corn on the cob.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my corn salad turned out bland and watery. Maybe I didn't use enough lime juice.

I decided to experiment and added some chopped jalapenos to the salad. It gave it a nice kick that I really enjoyed.

This salad was a huge hit at my last BBQ! Everyone loved the unique and flavorful combination of ingredients. It was a nice change from the typical potato or pasta-based salads.
