What it is

Organic corn meal is ground dried corn that is certified as grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers. It is a staple food made from dent corn, a variety typically used for animal feed and industrial products. The corn is milled to varying degrees of coarseness.

Why it's used

Corn meal is used as a thickener in sauces and gravies, and as a base for baked goods like cornbread, muffins, and pancakes. It is also used to coat fried foods, providing a crispy texture. Manufacturers use it for its texture and mild corn flavor.

Health notes

Corn meal is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. It is a source of carbohydrates and some fiber. The Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) has evaluated corn meal and related corn products. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from typical consumption.

Allergen info

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