Did you know that it is possible to ruin a pan by...uhm...well...accidentally forgetting about frozen corn heating on the stove?

I didn't.

Neither soap, 409, comet, or a combination of all three made a dent on the blackened mess stuck to the bottom of the pan. On my next grocery trip, I might check out the price of steel wool.


NOTE: Burning frozen corn will create quite a fetid, noisome miasma that will quickly permeate the home and linger for hours on end.
