What's this?

Fruit?

Not fruit.

Found this in a charity shop this morning. There are only twelve photo's to guess and they are no where near as difficult to guess as @Yorky 's. Parties in the 1960's must have been a real hoot.

I believe that I did go to parties in the 60's. But don't remember that.

I remember charades in the 70s!

Kernels of corn?

And hey, I was robbed. A banneton IS a basket, not just sort of.

Kernels of corn?

Yes, it is. Sweet corn.

I've never seen one that colour before!

I've never seen one that colour before!

Its lovely. I know there is a blue/black type that is caused by a fungus (I think) that is used to make blue tortillas - I bought some recently see this thread:
Masa de Maiz Azul (Blue Corn Flour)

But I'be not come across red.

 

[buckytom]

We call it Indian corn, or Flint corn. It's used for both autumn decorations as well as food.

It comes in blue, brown, red, yellow, almost white, and almost black. Sometimes all on the same ear.

[Morning Glory]

Is this food related...?

 

[buckytom]

Sort of.

Ha, just kidding. Well, it was near a buffet table.

 

[Morning Glory]

balloons?

 

[buckytom]

Yup. Easy one.

They were next to the DJ and buffet tent at the football field.

My mum had something like this and gave it to the local museum! Along with some wooden jigsaw puzzles.
