Sweetcorn, baby, canned, drained

Baby sweetcorn consists of immature maize cobs, eaten whole before the kernels fully develop. The figures here describe canned baby sweetcorn after draining. It provides small amounts of protein and carbohydrate, along with vitamin C. Per 100g, it contains 2.9g of protein, 2g of carbohydrate, 14mg of vitamin C and 2.9g of salt.

Vitamin C supports normal immune function and helps the body make collagen, which is needed for skin and other connective tissues. The salt content is high and is worth noting for people monitoring their salt intake, even though the product is drained. Full nutrient figures are provided in the tables below.

About these figures

Values are per 100g of the food as described (Literature sources). "Trace" means only a very small amount was found. Nutrients that were not measured are not shown. Salt is calculated from sodium.

These figures come from an older part of the dataset that is no longer updated. Original source: Wu Leung et al. (1972) Food composition table for use in East Asia, Vitamin K1 from Bolton-Smith et al, Br.J. Nutr 83, 2000..
