What does this mean (Bartcop photo)?
This is on Bartcop.com today (scroll down about 1/3 of the page),
with this caption: "Oh, God."

When I saved the pic, it was called "corn-cranberry."

It look like black eyed peas to me.

What the hell is it?

1. Bartcop has an affinity for corn ...
around harvest time, he's in the midwest, he makes posts about it.

4. It's a local Oklahoma variety
He claims it's the best in the world. It's a midsummer ritual with Bart.

2. I'm no corn expert,
but I've seen white corn and blue corn. Isn't this just a hybrid of the two?

7. Is cranberry corn a new hybrid I've just not heard of?
Hm.

I thought it looked like a creepy ear of Frankencorn.

Sorry, corn lovers!

8. We always called it indian corn when I was growing up.

Any corn that wasn't the standard yellow or white in color was given the name indian corn.

11. Normally this is about Bixby corn
Bixby is a suburb of Tulsa (I'm in Tulsa), and they have a corn festival in June or July. This may be a breed of corn that has a later harvest.

It is pretty damn good corn - especially grilled.
