At a glance
Summary
This product is made from organic yellow corn masa flour and uses expeller-pressed high oleic safflower oil, which is a healthier option compared to typical seed oils. However, it is still a processed food with a moderate level of processing, which limits its score. The ingredient list is relatively clean, with no artificial additives or preservatives, but the presence of safflower oil and the processed nature of the product prevent a higher rating.
