These figures are for frozen sweet corn kernels, straight from the bag: 136 g a cup. Fresh kernels cut off the cob weigh 145 g a cup, and canned whole kernel corn, drained, 164 g. A 10-ounce bag (284 g) holds about 2 cups; a large ear yields about 143 g of kernels, roughly one cup.
Where this number comes from
USDA FoodData Central lists 1 cup of “Corn, sweet, yellow, frozen, kernels cut off cob, unprepared (Includes foods for USDA's Food Distribution Program)” at 136 g (FDC ID 168398, SR Legacy).
Everything else is worked out from that figure: spoons from 1 cup = 16 tablespoons = 48 teaspoons, and ounces and pounds from their exact definitions (1 oz = 28.349523125 g, 1 lb = 453.59237 g, NIST).
