While some conventional Hominy is processed with lye, Hominy doesn’t need to be processed with such an abrasive and potentially harmful chemical, so our Hominy is produced with a safer and organic alternative: nature peel. Nature peel is a potassium carbonate solution that is used to remove the outer skin from the corn. (It is also used to peel organic tomatoes.) it is basically an organic way to achieve the same result as lye. We also do not add sodium Bisulfide (retains the white color). this means that our Hominy is naturally more tan in color, and closer to the original corn. Our mission is to make natural, organic, and eco-friendly products more affordable. We pride ourselves in quality product sourcing. We thrive on helping the independent. We believe in the concept of fair Trade. We’re a family that’s been doing this since 1995. At Natural Value, you live well and spend less.
