What it is
Whole corn is the entire kernel of maize, a grain that is a staple food in many parts of the world. It is harvested and can be used in its natural form or processed into various food products. Corn is grown in many countries, including the United States.
Why it's used
Whole corn is used as a whole grain ingredient, providing texture and a mild, sweet flavor. It is commonly found in snacks like chips and pretzels, as well as in salsas and other prepared foods. Its presence adds a hearty, rustic quality to these products.
Health notes
Whole corn is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of fiber, vitamins, and minerals. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated corn and its components. While generally considered healthy as part of a balanced diet, excessive intake of processed corn products high in salt or fat may be a concern.
Allergen info
Corn is not one of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. It does not contain gluten.
