Mini Corn Dogs, 10 OZ
What You Should Know
Found in the frozen aisle for quick snacks or kid-friendly meals, these mini corn dogs are the kind of thing you grab for game nights, after-school bites, or a nostalgic treat. They feel indulgent and comforting — crispy, slightly sweet battered exterior with a chewy, seasoned plant-based frankfurter that aims to recreate a classic carnival snack. The long ingredient list (isolated wheat gluten, refined flours and starches, added sugars, gums, leavening agents, flavorings, and partial frying in industrial oils) points to heavy industrial processing focused on texture, shelf life, and convenience, consistent with ultraprocessed products.
