Nutrients in the water used in Animal Feed
*Cooking or salad oil *Corn Oil Margarines *Restaurant Frying Operation
Cornstarch *Adhesive applications Paper and Textiles for use in sizing, surface coating Specialty Starches *Part of “drilling mud” which cools down the superheated oil drilling bits in the search for oil *Agents: Flocculating, anti-caking, mold-release & thickening *Dusting powder Regular and Specialty Modified Starches *Ready to eat food *Instant pie and pudding fillings *Raw material for the production of industrial chemicals and plastics, which could replace petroleum feedstocks
Corn Syrups *Can depress freezing to prevent crystal formation in ice cream and other frozen desserts *Its effect on viscosity allows salad dressing and condiments to pour at manageable rates *Provides suspension to keep other ingredients evenly mixed in lunchmeats and hotdogs *Can improve textures and enhance colors without masking natural flavors in canned fruits and vegetables High Fructose Corn Syrup *42-HFCS gives mild sweetness to canned fruits , condiments and other processed foods *55-HFCS used in soft drinks, ice cream and frozen desserts *90-HFCS used to provide sweetness in natural & light foods . Presweetened cereal, instant beverages dry mix products
