Why is everyone talking (and singing) about corn?
I dont know how Im supposed to fall asleep with the corn song playing in my head all night.
The song draws from an interview on Recess Therapy – a web series that poses questions to kids.
“I can’t imagine a more beautiful thing,” Tariq says.
Tariq is missing a front tooth and wearing a shirt decorated with drawings of double-decker buses.
Shapiro-Barnum asks him to describe corn.
“A big lump with knobs,” he says.
Tariq offers that corn should cost $1 and wishes viewers a “corntastic” day.
As of this writing, the song version by @schmoyoho has 10 million likes.

Who is the Corn Kid?
Though Tariq has talked endlessly about corn, we don’t know much about the kid behind the meme.
When he’s not dropping quote-worthy bits about corn, he likes to play games like tag and hide-and-seek.
How can I watch the original Corn Kid interview?
