About Blue corn chips
Blue corn chips are a flavorful snack made primarily from blue corn, which gives them their distinctive color and nutty taste. Originating from Indigenous cuisines of the Americas, these chips are a staple in Mexican and Southwestern dishes, often paired with salsa, guacamole, or queso. Blue corn's natural anthocyanins, responsible for its vibrant hue, offer antioxidant properties, which may support overall health. Compared to standard yellow corn chips, they often have a slightly higher protein and fiber content, promoting satiety. Typically made from ground blue corn, oil, and salt, these chips are gluten-free and may be minimally processed, depending on the brand. While rich in flavor and certain nutrients, they can be high in sodium and calories, especially if fried, so portion control is key. Opting for baked varieties or those made with wholesome oils may provide a healthier alternative for this beloved crunchy treat.
