Sweetcorn, kernels, purchased frozen, boiled in brine, drained
The majority of nutrients including proximates, vitamins and minerals were derived from 5 purchases of frozen corn kernels (2x Birds Eye and one each x Logan Farm, Woolworths, Farmland and McCain) from six supermarkets in Adelaide in 1988 (AGAL, 1988). Frozen corn (200g) was added to 110 ml salt water and heated to boiling in a sauce pan, simmered for approx. 5 min. then drained. Weight loss after cooking was 7%. Fatty acids were imputed from maize oil. Folate was estimated from raw sweetcorn. Cholesterol and retinol were imputed zero based on scientific literature.
