Maize is harvested at maturity, when its kernels are dry
and can be stored or used as grain. Sweet corn is maize
that's high in sugar. It's harvested before maturity and
therefore doesn't handle storage well. It must be eaten
immediately, as a vegetable. Or it must be processed for
canning or freezing, before the kernels become inedibly
starchy and tough
