Organic Whole Kernel Corn, 15 oz Can
What it is
This is a can of sweet corn kernels, grown organically. The corn is harvested at its peak ripeness and then preserved in a light brine to maintain its fresh flavor and texture. Organic farming practices mean the corn was grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers. The kernels are whole, meaning they are intact and have not been cut or broken during processing. This product is ready to eat right from the can.

To use, simply open the can and drain the liquid. You can serve the corn cold directly from the can, or heat it gently on the stovetop or in the microwave. For stovetop heating, place the drained corn in a saucepan with a small amount of butter or water and heat over medium heat until warmed through. For microwave heating, transfer the drained corn to a microwave-safe dish and heat on high for 1-2 minutes, stirring halfway through.
