I'm a vertical man myself. I turn the corn on its side so the cylindrical part is going up/down and bite downwards.

I do it so that the kernels come off cleanly and don't get stuck in your teeth (very similar to cutting them off). I wonder where that puts me?

It's not clear to me how that would work unless you can unhinge your jaw. :)

What's your chin doing in all this? I would think you'd be bumping either your chin or your nose (or both) against the cob as you eat this way.

This whole discussion has made me hungry for some corn on the cob with nice butter and salt, damn.
