Product Snapshot: A specific variety of corn gives World Food Products’ new Corn Nuggets line the light crunch for which the brand is known. In addition, the kernels are steam-baked and then oil-roasted to seal in their natural corn flavor. The line comprises six flavors: BBQ, Cheesy Cheddar, Ranch, Roasted Salted, Tajin Clasico and Tajin Habanero, that latter two are made with flavors from Tajin Seasonings.

Ingredients (Tajin Clasico): Corn, high oleic canola oil, chili peppers, salt, dehydrated lime juice and .5% silicon dioxide to prevent caking.
