What You Should Know

You'd find this bag tucked in the organic or specialty snack aisle and bring it out for taco nights, picnics, or a simple salsa-and-chips moment. It feels wholesome and a bit nostalgic thanks to nixtamalized corn — a traditional process — offering crunchy, clean-flavored satisfaction rather than greasy indulgence. The very short ingredient list and lack of emulsifiers or artificial additives suggest the crunch comes from cooking and shaping rather than heavy industrial reformulation, pointing away from ultra-processed formulations.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:3 / 4

Processed Food

Why this score?

Ingredients are just nixtamalized corn, water, lime and salt with no additives, but the product has been cooked/shaped and salted into a packaged snack; that processing level aligns with NOVA group 3 (processed foods) rather than ultra-processed.
