See, kids, eating your vegetables can be worth it.
Earlier this week, a 7-year-old boy named Tariq, known online as "Corn Kid," was honored by South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem as the state's official "Corn-bassador."
She signed a proclamation and welcomed him to the state's "Corn Palace."
Initially, Tariq went viral after appearing in a video for the popular Instagram page, "Recess Therapy," where he expressed his profound adulation of corn. However, the interview became so popular that soon, a vast number of songs were created on TikTok with the footage from the interview.
