Elote (Mexican corn on the cob) are a popular street food in Mexico, although they can be and are frequently served as meal at home prepared in the same way. In Mexico, Chicago, and in the south of the United States, it is customary to consume elotes like a popsicle on a stick or by grasping the husk of the cob that has been pulled down to form a handle. Condiments such as salt, chili powder, butter, cheese, lemon juice, mayonnaise, and sour cream are usually put in the elote. Powdered lemon pepper seasoning is used on the elotes in Texas. In the southern and central urban zones of Mexico (ready to eat) boiled elotes are usually sold on the streets by ambulant sellers and or in stands, but in the rest of Mexico elotes are more frequently sold in fixed stores/establishments/restaurants rather than by ambulant sellers on the street.
