The Corn Song craze
The TikTok account @Schmoyoho turned the interview into a song by adding background music and singing.

It all started when Julian Shapiro-Barnum spoke to a young boy named Tariq who was eating a corncob. He asked the boy what he liked best, and he replied, “I really like corn!”

When asked what he liked best about corn, Tariq responded, “Ever since I was told it was real, it tasted good!” Then I tried it with butter, and everything changed! It’s fantastic. People couldn’t stop smiling while watching the video because of the boy’s pure responses.
Julian then asked Tariq if everyone should eat corn, to which he replied, “No, it doesn’t have to be liked by everyone to be the best.” You simply have to give it a shot. Enjoy a bite! Look at this guy. I can’t think of anything more lovely. It’s made of corn!”
When asked to describe the vegetable to someone, Tariq replied, “An enormous lump with knobs… and it has juice”. When asked how much the food costs, he replied, “One dollar.” I wish you a corn-mastic day!”
