Salted Roasted Giant Corn (Waitrose) [By @SpectreUK]


Produced by Inka Snacks these Salted Roasted Giant Corn are my latest adventure into alternative snackdom. To be honest with you I’m not and have never been a big fan of popcorn even let alone roasted giant corn, which I’ve never tried before. On pouring out the packet of giant corn next to my lunchtime sandwiches I first thought that these orange coloured giant corns didn’t look particularly appetising. They certainly had a strong crunch to them, weren’t overly salty, but had a curious chilli burn to them that raised a few notches whilst I shovelled them unceremoniously into my mouth. I quickly noted that they were indeed moreish. I had a quick glance at the ingredients and noticed the paprika which explained the orange colour and the chilli pepper powder which explained the lovely medium chilli burn. I reckon they should rename them to Chilli Roasted Giant Corn, although that might spoil the surprise!
