Nutritional Characteristics of Hominy:
One cup (165 grams) of whole, canned white hominy contains 17 percent of the recommended dietary allowance (RDA) for fiber and 5 percent of the RDA for protein. White hominy is a good source of omega-6 fatty acids. It has few vitamins — just 1 percent of riboflavin (vitamin B2) and 3 percent of vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid) per cup — but is rich in various minerals. Each cup of white hominy has:
Iron: 6 percent of the RDA
Magnesium: 7 percent of the RDA
Manganese: 6 percent of the RDA
Phosphorus: 6 percent of the RDA
Selenium: 7 percent of the RDA
Zinc: 12 percent of the RDA
White hominy also has small amounts (between 1 and 4 percent) of other minerals, like calcium and copper. Yellow hominy has similar vitamins and minerals compared to white hominy. Yellow hominy also has small amounts of vitamin A (about 4 percent of the RDA per cup), but could otherwise be considered the same nutritionally as white hominy.
This post is corny as hell.
