is baby corn (the kind you get in a can) just normal corn, harvested very early? Or is it a different varietyof corn? How do they prepare them so that you can eat the cob too?

Very very small farmers.

(To summarize: It’s a particular strain of Maize, and harvested very early before the cob hardens)
