In 2371, when USS Voyager was pulled to the Delta Quadrant by the Caretaker and beamed aboard to a holographic simulation of a farm, the crew walked past a garden patch of corn stalks. The Caretaker, in the form of Aunt Adah, offered the crewmembers some corn-on-the-cob and some lemonade. (VOY: "Caretaker")
