Specifications as per GOST 13634-90
Corn is the most common type of corn. Its kernels are very juicy and cloyingly sweet, making it an excellent ingredient for cooking a variety of dishes.
Yellow corn comes from the sweet corn variety and is sold year round. It is considered a grain, vegetable, and fruit depending on its maturity and use. This type of corn is actually developed from a series of studies on white corn. Yellow corn has a single (dominant) Y allele that produces carotenoid pigments. These pigments are responsible for the yellow, red, or orange hues of fruits and vegetables. The carotenoid pigments in the endosperm give yellow corn its yellow shell. The same carotenoids make yellow corn a good source of beta-carotene, which in turn produces vitamin A. Yellow corn is also a good source of lutein, which is good for the eyes. Yellow corn kernels are high in sugar and water.
