The decorative, colored corns can make for interesting flavors when crossed with sweet corns. We've grown Peaches & Cream sweet corn with blue kernels on it (10-25% i'd guess) and the flavor was amazing, still sweet but with a meaty body to it. The first time was an accident but we experimented extensively for several years after and got good results from several crosses.
Ya gotta keep the "Sapphire Gems" stuff a long way off from everything else, it seems eager to use any pollen other than its own.
