YOU CAN CAN, CORN SMUT TRUFFLES, OR CAVIAR IN BELIZE

Corn SMUT is a corn disease, but the FUNGUS is also a restaurant delicacy, high priced like caviar.  Nobody in Belize is yet producing Ustilagomaydis ( corn smut ) deliberately, or collecting SMUT from corn that has caught the fungus. Corn smut is considered a pest in Belize, but you can actually grow corn to enable corn smut as a crop. An export market exists in Mexico that produces about 400 tonnes.

 You can actually can this caviar, or truffle, as some call it and get it imported.  Good article on this by Dr. Alexsandro Mascia, BMBS, CHEd in the Belize Ag Report Magazine, issue 17.
