corn puffs

Crunchy maize bites

Corn puffs are a puffed snack food made from cornmeal, light and crunchy with an airy texture.

They come in various forms—plain, cheese-flavored, or sweetened as breakfast cereal.

The puffing process forces heated corn through a machine that expands it rapidly: The kids devoured a bag of corn puffs while watching TV.
