Regular corn works just as well. In my uneducated opinion

I've made soured corn a bunch of times now and each time is different depending on whats on hand. plain corn and water or milk will work but sugar and stale beer or yeast will help the bacteria grow faster and longer and flavorings from molasses to koolaid/jello/jelly/jam/syrup give it a sweet candy like smell to me anyway. with their noses they are gonna find it either way. it is nasty smelling stuff and carrying it far without getting it on me is almost impossible and will stink out your clothes and truck like nobody's bizz. since I tweaked my knee I strain it then put it thru the dehydrator so it's dry/lighter and is like pig hard candy, and use the liquid as a scent attractant for wma's where "baiting/feed" is not allowed. but pigs are OMNIVORES and will eat just about anything. I have seen them show prefferences and ignore the corn when there is something they like better and is easier and safer to get to. it all seems to depend on what else is around at the time , like acorns.

I have found that deer and hogs will flat out abandon corn all together 2x a year. One time in the summer when the blackberries are ripe. And again about m/l when the live oaks are dropping. We have a big enough crop of both where I hunt that it makes that much of a difference. Park yourself in front of a good live oak that is dropping and you will kill something. They will be there at some point in the day. We have them scattered in old grown up cutdowns. And you can hear the hogs going from tree to tree all morning and evening
I gather them up here at the house and dump them out. Usually gone within 12 hours
