Corn beef
Happy St. Patrick's Day! Now spell the food correctly.
Often paired with cabbage, corned beef is "a cut of beef (usually brisket, but sometimes round or silverside) cured or pickled in a seasoned brine." The "corn" refers to the coarse salts used to cure it.
You also have corn-fed beef, where "corn-fed" refers to what the cows eat during their lives.
Please do not say "corn beef and cabbage."
