Celebrate this festive season guilt & gluten-free with Cornitos Festival Pack

Assimilated in 2009, Cornitos is a crispy nacho brand made with an infusion of Mexican and Indian flavors. Its inception took place back in 2008 when Vikram Agarwal, managing director, Greendot Health Foods, tried tortilla chips on a business trip to the US and was complete in awe of it, to say the least.  

Soon after a detailed study on the Indian snack market, Agarwal found a gap between the predominant namkeen and western potato chips, which nacho crisps could fill. Thus, Cornitos' journey began. Over the years, Cornitos gained its crowd and believes it stands out amongst its competitors, due to the perfect blend of unique flavors and healthy ingredients. As it is a gluten-free snack cooked in healthy corn oil and is made by the Mexican lime-treatment process of making traditional masa using stone-ground non-GMO Corn.
