Erewhon Organic Corn Flakes (Vegan, Gluten-Free, Soy-Free) PDF Print E-mail

A few years ago, when we dove into the natural food movement, my husband and I agreed to buy only organic corn products. Though the consequences aren’t fully understood in the GMO push (environmentally or health-wise) , we knew that genetically-modified foods were not something we wished to have in our diets. Corn, like several of the other top crops in the U.S., is often genetically-modified, and the food labels don’t help us distinguish … with the exception of that “certified organic” stamp of approval. By definition (for now), organic foods cannot be genetically modified.

I still struggle to find organic corn on the cob in my area when picnic season kicks up, but I have at last found some reliable and good organic corn flakes! Corn flakes? Yes, corn flakes. We aren’t talking a dietary staple here, but I always seem to come across these super-easy recipes that call for corn flakes, which I am just dying to try. There are only two brands of organic corn flakes I have located in my area, and one contains added sweeteners … so out with that one …

… and in with a box of Erewhon’s Organic Corn Flakes.

Since I know there are some serious corn flake lovers out there, I did a cereal bowl taste-test first. They were perfect! Everything corn flakes should be … very crispy/crunchy, fresh tasting, and pure in flavor. Though, what else would I expect from a cereal that contains only organic milled corn and a touch of sea salt? Yes, no sugars, no gluten, no dairy, nada. Just corn.

For my daily uses, it was time to test out a recipe. I made Oven “Fried” Fish (we used Hoki, though cod or halibut would work nicely too) …

Oven Fried Dairy-Free, Gluten-Free Fish

It came out so light and tender, with a delightful crisp coating that complimented the flavor perfectly. Both my husband and I were impressed and satisfied. In fact, my husband liked it better than any of the fish recipes we have tried in the past! See my personal blog, One Frugal Foodie (to be posted in at the beginning of November!), for the recipe, should you wish to try it at home.

These flakes will definitely be a pantry-stocker for me!
