  • This is a corn maze. (Not maize) This is a maze made into a corn field by selectively cutting away some of the corn.

    The sign is a joke, because you can just walk through the corn in any direction to leave the maze. This is, however, discouraged. (The mazes usually are for the whole family and not particularly hard in the first place.)

    In American English at least, “maize” is only used when discussing old varieties of corn developed by Native Americans.
