About HOT & SPICY CRUNCHY CURLS CORN SNACKS, HOT & SPICY

Meijer Hot and Spicy Crunchy Curls Corn Snacks are an extruded corn-based snack sold under the Meijer brand at Meijer, Inc. supercenter stores in the Midwest. The base is cornmeal fried in soybean oil, coated with a complex hot seasoning blend. That seasoning contains sugar, salt, paprika and spice extractives, maltodextrin, onion powder, monosodium glutamate (MSG), cheddar and blue cheese powders made from pasteurized milk, hydrogenated soybean oil, autolyzed yeast extract, citric acid, garlic powder, butter, nonfat dry milk, sodium diacetate, whey, lactic acid, natural and artificial flavors, sodium caseinate, and the synthetic dyes Red 40 Lake, Yellow 5, and Yellow 6, along with flavor enhancers disodium inosinate and disodium guanylate.

This product contains several notable ingredients worth highlighting. Hydrogenated soybean oil is present in the seasoning; consumers should check the label for trans fat content, as legacy snack formulations sometimes retained partially hydrogenated oils through earlier production periods. Sodium caseinate is a milk-derived protein and constitutes a hidden dairy ingredient relevant to those with dairy allergies or lactose intolerance. MSG, autolyzed yeast extract, and disodium inosinate and guanylate function as flavor enhancers. Allergens include milk and soy. The product is not suitable for vegans due to the dairy ingredients. Per 100 grams, it delivers 643 calories, 50 grams of fat, 42.86 grams of carbohydrates, 3.57 grams of protein, and no fiber. A 28-gram serving provides approximately 180 calories. The high fat content reflects deep-frying and the oil-based seasoning.
