Tinned cream style corn question

carlos57, Jun 28, 9:04pm
Hi. Against my better judgment, I bought Budget cream style corn for the first time. Son hasn't complained, but I see that it only contains 35% corn. If you have a tin of Oak or Wattie's cream style corn, could you please let me know the corn content? Thanks :)

Wow, that's not much is it.

No, it could explain why it only cost 99c!

Watties is 80% corn. I usually buy Oak because its cheaper but got a couple of cans Watties on special and it has a lot of coen compared to some of the other brands.

Cream-style corn is a good quick thickener for a winter soup :)

Just wondering what the other ingredients were in the Budget can. It's amazing the difference in different brands isn't it.

Watties Pick of the Crop has Supersweet corn 62% minimum

I used it once for corn fritters - don't ever do this! Spend a tiny bit extra and get a vastly better product.

Ive just had a lot at a can of Homebrand creamed sweetcorn and it is only 48% corn! Still makes nice cornfritters tho!

Here's the list of ingredients - corn (35%), water, modified corn starch, sugar, salt. Don't worry - won't be buying again! I usually buy Oak (about the only Oak product I buy), but I'll be making some careful comparisons next time I shop. Thanks for all the input :)
