How We Verify Every Product on CornFree.ca (and Why It Matters)

When we say "corn-free," we mean it.


At CornFree.ca, we know firsthand how exhausting and scary it can be to shop with a corn allergy. From hidden ingredients to vague labeling laws, it often feels like navigating a minefield. That’s why we created a site where you can finally exhale — and trust what you're buying.


🛒 Our Product Verification Process

We don’t just glance at a label and call it a day. Every product featured on CornFree.ca goes through a multi-step verification process before it ever makes it onto our list:


1. Ingredient Label Deep Dive

We carefully read every ingredient, researching each one for corn-derived risks. We check for:


Obvious culprits (like citric acid, dextrose, maltodextrin)


Sneaky suspects (like "natural flavors," "vitamin E," and "modified food starch")


Ingredients that may be processed with corn, even if not corn themselves.


2. Manufacturer Contact

We go straight to the source — the manufacturer. We ask direct questions like:


"Is your annatto derived from corn?"


"Is there corn in your apple juice concentrate?"


"Does your vanilla extract contain corn?"

Most companies appreciate our transparency and are happy to help. If they can’t (or won’t) answer? It doesn’t make the list.


3. Community Confirmation

Whenever possible, we cross-reference with other trusted sources in the corn allergy community — including ingredient reports, support groups, and firsthand feedback from people like you. If a red flag is raised, we investigate further.

🧡 Why It Matters

This isn’t just a website to us. It's personal. Our mission is to make life a little easier (and safer) for families dealing with corn intolerance or allergy — and that starts with trust.


We do the hard work — so you don’t have to.


Every post, every product, every recommendation comes from a place of integrity, diligence, and compassion. You're not alone on this journey, and we're honored to walk alongside you.
