About Corn, sweet, yellow, canned, whole kernel, drained solids
Canned whole-kernel sweet corn is picked at its sugary peak and sealed in the tin, which is why it keeps that just-shucked sweetness all year round. Draining off the packing liquid leaves the loose golden kernels ready to tip straight into a pan, salad or soup.
At about 79 calories per 100 grams, drained corn is a light starchy vegetable: roughly 18 grams of carbohydrate, a couple of grams of protein and close to 2 grams of fiber, plus small amounts of B vitamins and the yellow carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin. Canned versions carry added salt, around 185 milligrams of sodium per 100 grams, though no-salt-added tins are easy to find and a quick rinse washes some of it away.
It is one of the most useful tins to keep on a shelf: warmed with butter as a side, scattered over tacos and salads, or simmered into chowders and succotash.
