TikTok Is Slamming Walmart’s Great Value Canned Corn After A Shopper Exposes The Product’s Harmful Ingredients: ‘Why Is This Not On The News’

A recent TikTok video by Peggy Bolton (@peggybolton) has sparked significant a conversation regarding Walmart’s Great Value canned corn, drawing attention to potentially harmful ingredients and raising concerns about food safety. The video, which has quickly garnered, reveals alarming changes to the product that have left many consumers outraged and worried.

As it turns out, some changes have been made to Great Value corn—and it could take a toll on your health. Find all of the details below.

In her video, Peggy Bolton highlights the differences between old and new cans of Great Value canned corn. She points out that many households might still have both versions in their pantries, indicating that the change is a recent one. “The fact that many of us have both cans of corn in our pantry says that this change happened pretty recently and if you don’t know what I’m talking about, let me show you, because this has been making the rounds on social media and you might want to check your corn,” Bolton explains.

Bolton meticulously compares the nutritional labels of the two cans, noting a significant increase in calories and other nutritional values. “First of all, the calories doubled. Almost everything in the nutritional label doubled,” she says. The label includes some other new details, as well: the corn is a product of Thailand and carries a California cancer warning label.

The new cans of Great Value corn feature a warning label that reads: “Consuming this product can expose you to chemicals including lead which are known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.” This label has caused a significant uproar among consumers, as it raises serious questions about the safety of the product.

Bolton speculates that the issue might stem from pesticides used in Thailand, the new source country for the corn. “Every great value can that I went through–this is only on the corn that comes from Thailand. So my best guess is that it’s coming from the pesticides in Thailand,” she suggests.
