What it is

Modified corn starch is corn starch that has been altered physically or chemically to improve its performance in food products. It is derived from corn and is used to change the texture, stability, or appearance of foods.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add modified corn starch to improve texture, provide thickening, and stabilize foods. It is commonly found in sauces, gravies, dairy products, baked goods, and processed meats.

Health notes

Modified corn starch is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It functions as a carbohydrate and is digested similarly to regular starch. International bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated modified starches, and they are permitted for use in many food categories.

Allergen info

Modified corn starch is not derived from one of the nine major allergens. It is also gluten-free.
