Corn in your smoothie?

I saw these beautiful ears of fresh corn at the store today and the first thing that popped in my head was "I wonder how corn in a smoothie would be?". I love the taste of fresh corn, its got a little bit of sweet taste, I think it could add something to one of my veggie smoothies. Anyone tried this or have a good smoothie recipe with corn?

    Corn, yogurt, a little honey if you want more sweetness and a little water if it is too thick.

    To be honest this sounds likes very Japanese flavor type thing. Post back and tell us how it is!

    Blueberries go well with corn. Never had them in a smoothie, but blueberry cornmeal pancakes or cornbread are really tasty.

    I like corn soup, don't know why the idea of drinking it seems weird. I don't eat smoothies much anyway, though.

    I never considered it but I think with the right ingredients it could totally be a good smoothie.

    I'm not a huge corn fan... I feel like corn doesn't really stay and hang out once you eat...It's kinda just visiting

    anyone who puts Quest bars in a smoothie is already eating corn in a smoothie!

    I imagine that would be a heck of a source of fibre.
