Lightly Salted Corn Cakes, 130g

Healthy, yummy and fairly priced.

It's good for road trip to France.

I've tried Kallo rice cakes (being a bit of a rice cake enthusiast), and I like Kallo as a brand, so I purchased a couple of packs of these corn versions to try. The packs are standard as you find for most rice cakes; a plastic wrapped stack tied with a metal folding tag. The cakes are easy to pull out from the packet without breaking the edges off (pet hate). You don't need to tear the plastic wrapper, making the pack easy to reseal. Use-by is May 2021 on this batch so I would feel confident in a long use-by date if placing another order. As you might expect, these are much more like popped corn snacks (think wotsits without the cheese). The flavour is really very nice. There is a much stronger flavour than you get from the delicately flavoured rice cakes, and these corn cakes are nice with a variety of toppings or even with just a smidge of spread. The saltiness is subtle and well balanced. The only disappointment from these is the texture. They are less crisp than rice cakes, kind of chewy with harder pieces of corn in them. They also stick wonderfully well to the teeth. I felt that this was a slight let-down, especially as the chewy hard lumps of corn weren't too great to chew on. They were almost soft and stale textured, as if I'd left them out opened on the side for a few days. The flavour was not a stale one though so I assume that's the texture of a corn cake! Would I buy them again? Yes, I think the flavour makes them worth an occasional lunch or snack, but I think I prefer the humble rice cake for their overall crunchy and light texture.

the lightly salted ones are a bit plain by themselves, but if you have something light on top, they are really nice

I will buy another taste for this rice cake,maybe fit others.

Thick, crunchy and mild taste, suitable for many types of spread

Sometimes I just plain, so lightly salted version fits the bill for me. I like the fact that these even cheaper than local co-op as well! They worth every penny. They taste nice, not silly salted unlike some rice cakes. I do like the corn taste of it too. Highly recommend these as a light snack, or breakfast maybe? I do have 2 or 3 in morning as my breakfast, as don't really enjoy having breakfast, but feel these days I need to have something to eat, even if it is just corn cakes.

Arrived late (10hrs). Tried to eat it with supper only to find a mouldy cracker in the middle of the packet with still plenty of use by date. Won't touch Kallos or Morrisons again
