What it is

Organic corn grits are a coarse meal made from dried dent corn kernels that have been ground. The hull and germ are typically removed, leaving the starchy endosperm. They are a whole grain product, often used in breakfast cereals and as a base for dishes like polenta.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use corn grits as a base for breakfast cereals, side dishes, and baked goods. They provide a mild corn flavor and a distinct texture. They are commonly found in hot cereals, cornbread, and some snack foods.

Health notes

Corn grits are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. They are a source of carbohydrates and some fiber. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated corn and corn products, generally considering them safe for consumption. No specific health concerns are typically associated with the consumption of corn grits at normal dietary levels.

Allergen info

Corn is not one of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. It does not contain gluten.
