It's faster (and tastes better) just boiling it in a big pot with a pinch of salt and sugar. - Trish Jul 18, 20:47 9
- Faster? Huh? Boiling is faster? No way. Not for 1 to 3 cobs. Boiling is way slow and wasteful. -- nm - Beryllium's iPhone Jul 18, 20:54 8
  - it only takes like five minutes once you've boiled that whole half pot of water -- nm - moles Jul 18, 20:56 7
    - Yes, but that's a hell of a lot of setup and teardown for three cobs. -- nm - Beryllium's iPhone Jul 18, 21:06 6
      - Pulling out a pot and filling it with water is "a hell of a lot of setup"? - Trish Jul 18, 21:21 1
        
        For three cobs it is, yes, absolutely. Plus, Megan's first day back at work after mat leave is tomorrow - needed to be fast and simple. -- nm - Beryllium (iPhone) Jul 18, 21:24
      - (and the oven fan is more likely to wake kieran up than the microwave. Need a new one.) -- nm - Beryllium's iPhone Jul 18, 21:07 1
        
        Now I'm not even believing you're using the baby as an excuse. - Trish Jul 18, 21:43

        Re-read. I stated the point in the first post. :) -- nm - Beryllium's iPhone Jul 18, 21:14
