These aren't corn on the cob, but Pine Pollen cones.
Around Easter, the flowering season of the Canary Island pine begins in Tenerife. And then there is Pine Pollen in abundance.
The male flower cones produce the characteristic yellow pollen, which eventually spreads in the wind.
And this is precisely the pollen that everything at Pino Gordo revolves around.
Pine Pollen is often associated with its natural content of phytoandrogens, particularly testosterone. However, there is insufficient scientific evidence to determine whether, or to what extent, Pine Pollen affects testosterone levels in humans.
In any case, the cones themselves have already taken a step in the right direction.
