Getting ‘Cornverted’ with Cobz Street Corn

My guests on this week’s episode have created a Street Food brand using a new take on an old sidewalk favourite in Barbados - corn on the cob. Traditionally it’s heavily roasted or steamed and bathed in butter. But Halley Franklyn and Rachael Kennedy the co-owners and life partners behind Cobz Street Corn are doing something a lot different with corn these days. While they’re still located street side both the corn and the experience are night and day compared to the customary way. It all began with a trip abroad and a taste of a Mexican elote - grilled or steamed corn on the cob with flavourful toppings. The Cobz visual branding, quirky social media posts, and colourful corn photography first put this brand on my radar. Halley and Rachael somehow found time in their hectic week to chat with me. Listen in.
