We love all manner of yummy fried foods, but these corn nuggets were new for us. They’ve got whole corn kernels and creamed corn, frozen into balls, then dipped in a tasty, seasoned batter and fried to perfection. These nuggets are so good – you could even add in some cheese if you had some on hand – and we’ve gotten rave reviews from everyone who have tried them. If croquettes are your thing, you’ll definitely love these guys, so grab some corn and get frying!
