| The answer really depends on your taste and the specific variety planted. We plant a variety that pretty much tastes good from the young to the slightly old side. I have customers that ask me to call them when the corn is on the older side for canning, and I also have some that prefer it younger. We try to have two bins at the stand...one young and one old, because tastes vary. I also sell to the Latino markets in the area. Latino's prefer corn on the REALLY old side. I'm completely sold out of that, so I didn't have any for the picture.
As far as worms are concerned, you'll be fine...even if you eat the worm that's feasting on your corn. We seem to be training a society that doesn't want us to use chemicals, but at the same time wants absolutely pest free produce. Ain't gonna happen...sorry.
