Perezgonzalez assessed the nutritional balance of corn crisps in 2012, as part of a research on the nutritional composition of snacks in New Zealand. Corn crisps had, on average, a nutritional unbalance of BNI 67.36-fb, being particularly biased towards deficiency in fiber. They were also adequate in carbohydrate and sugar, high in fat, saturated fat and sodium, and low in protein.

Nutritional Balance of Corn Crisps (Descriptive Statistics)

Perezgonzalez assessed the nutritional balance of corn crisps in 2012, as part of a research on the nutritional composition of snacks in New Zealand. The distribution of nutritional balance covered a wide range of values. The median was located at BNI 76.98 and the middle 68% of products ranged between BNI 42 (P16) and BNI 121 (P84). There was a slight positive skewness (mean=78.49, zSkew=0.99). The distribution of nutritional balance varied slightly according to the particular recommended dietary intakes (RDIs) of reference, although all followed a pattern similar to the one just described. Even so, this group of products appeared slightly less unbalanced under US's, Australia's and UK's RDIs than under WHO's RDIs.
