Corn and starch snacks are ready-to-eat savoury snack foods made from corn or other starches. They mainly provide carbohydrate and fat. Per 100g, they contain 56g of carbohydrate and 31g of fat, including 14g of saturated fat. The salt content is 3.3g. These figures represent samples from several brands.

Carbohydrate and fat provide energy for the body. The saturated fat and salt contents are worth noting for people monitoring these in their diet. Salt contributes to sodium intake, which affects fluid balance and blood pressure. The amount eaten determines how much energy, fat and salt is consumed.

About these figures

Values are per 100g of the food as described (20 samples, 6 brands including Skips). "Trace" means only a very small amount was found. Nutrients that were not measured are not shown. Salt is calculated from sodium.

These figures come from an older part of the dataset that is no longer updated. Original source: LGC, Survey of the Nutritional Composition of savoury snacks and nuts, 1993; fatty acids calculated from Fatty Acid Supplement, 1998 (17-429) proportions.
