Colorful Black Bean and Crab Salad

==Description==
This is a very colourful side dish that I serve with jerk Chicken or barbecued steaks. I quite often will take this to a pot luck along with several copies of the recipe, as it is always requested. For more of a bite, add a finely chopped jalapeno directly to the salad in addition to the sliced jalapenos on top. 
===Ingredients===
* 2 cups frozen corn, thawed 
* 1 (19 ounces) can black beans, drained and rinsed

* 1/4 teaspoon black pepper 
* 2 teaspoons white wine vinegar

* 3 tablespoons olive oil
