We had leftover chicken and bacon fried cream corn from last night.

I've never been a big fan of creamed corn... Might be because my dad tried to force us to eat corn chowder as kids. (edit to add, he wasn't the best cook... at all) Traumatized for life. Then we were introduced to hominy... Holy horrors! Big old swollen bleached out white eyeballs! Nastiness personified! (can't handle the smell either) And of course grits come from? Why hominy of course! 
Really like kernel corn and love a salty, buttery, ear of corn on the cob. 
What can I say... I'm strange at best, weird at worst, and there's no explanation regardless.

Poor guy. Its stewed prunes smell I cant stand. My grandfather had to eat them to help him do No.2. When we went to thier house if it was dinnertime, the smell of those things.....eewww!
On another note, we might get some snow and ice this weekend. Weather people said about 2" rain this weekend and possible accumulation. Yippee....
But I will be home so bring it on.

Store bought cream corn from a can looks and smells like dog vomit-or worse. It tastes like a bowl of sugar with yellow stuff in it.
I make my own cream corn-no way I'm eating that store bought canned crap. Gross.

Unfortunately the only cream corn I've tried was from a can and I thought it was good.Store bought cream corn from a can looks and smells like dog vomit-or worse. It tastes like a bowl of sugar with yellow stuff in it.
I made bacon wrapped chicken bites for dinner last night.

Maybe you better get @Baymule's recipe for home made creamed corn. Might be like Log Cabin versus REAL maple syrup. The first was OK until I moved to Vermont and found out what maple syrup made from tree sap was like Bubye Log Cabin! FOREVER!
I've only had canned cream corn once and wasn't impressed though I think about the only canned vegetable I could eat is plain corn. The rest are just both texture and flavor.

Maybe @Baymule would share her recipe? I'm sure it would like Log Cabin vs Real Maple syrup. I can't eat those Log cabin syrup anymore. We went out for breakfast last Sunday and I ordered French toasts. Log Cabin was the only choice for syrup. I used it, didn't really have a choice...next time I will leave it.
I use canned green beans for Green bean casserole. DH would only eat green bean casserole if it's canned green beans. We do use canned mushrooms a lot. I'll get canned artichoke hearts once in a while to add to salad but that's about the canned veggies we get. For corn, I'll get frozen corn kernels in the winter time. Summer is corn on the cob.

Pure unadulterated, nothing added, nothing removed creamed corn is merely corn kernels pulled off the cob wherein the kernels are not whole and some of the kernel root is pulled with the kernel.
I make and freeze a lot of it by scraping the cob with a special curved knife looking thing after cutting the kernels off.
IF, the corn is overly mature when trying this, the creamed corn will have a relatively poor taste and a more starchy texture when eaten.
Most store bought canned creamed corn has had something added to it, usually water, corn starch, salt, and sugar. (Some, may or may not have preservatives and/artificial coloring)

I do eat canned artichoke hearts. On pizza or in spinach artichoke dip.
