I was today years old when I learned you're not supposed to eat the corn leaf

I enjoyed the corn husk with my first tamale. Wouldn't repeat that mistake, since I doubt I'd be as lucky.

The first time i had edemame i ate the whole pod a couple times and was like "this cant be right" and googled it and felt so betrayed by the people at the table that let me just do that to myself
