Flint Corn
Flint Corn also known as Indian Corn gets its name from the fact that most of the starch in the kernels is "hard as flint" unlike the more common Dent Corn or Field Corn which is made up of mostly soft starches. The name Dent Corn comes from the fact that when the kernels dry out they become "dented" and do not retain their shape like Flint Corn.
