* Only fresh corn will make this sandwich taste its very best, but use
well-drained canned corn if necessary.

SALSA: Mix all the salsa ingredients well and chill.

SANDWICHES:

1. Remove husks from corn, remove corn silk and snap off ends of stalks.
Have a pot of salted water boiling rapidly. Drop in corn ears, cover, and
cook for 5-7 minutes.

2. Remove corn from water, drain, and cut corn from cob.

3. Combine finely shredded cabbage, green pepper, tomato and cooked
crumbled bacon in a large bowl. Stir in 3/4 cup of the salsa mix, blending
well.

4. Cover and chill mixture. When ready to serve, fill pita bread with corn
mixture, top with remaining salsa and shredded cheese.
