Corn has a larger surface area than rice or flax seeds, and retains the desired temperature much, much longer. Because it is a larger kernel, it will not dry out quickly like other fillers do. Corn stays cleaner than other fillers, and has less problems with humidity, mold, or mildew. It generally does not provoke allergies. Other fillers such as rice or cherry pits can turn rancid over time, and have an unpleasant smell. Flax seed contains linseed oil, which can explode in the presence of oxygen. After checking with the Consumer Products Safety Commission and the FDA, we found no warnings against using 100% cotton microwavable corn bags, and no product recalls. There have been warnings against other grains, as well as other types of heating bags. Corn always smells like corn, and the kernel cannot be penetrated with outside odors. Corn will hold its shape as a rectangular kernel and will not disintegrate with time. The corn has been put through an intense cleaning process, and also has been placed under high heat before it is placed into the cotton bags. We feel confident in our choice of corn as a filler.

We use whole kernel field corn. Popcorn is a specific variety of corn. Popcorn is a completely round kernel with no exit for the moisture. When the moisture builds up, it pops. Whole kernel corn has an exit point at the base of the kernel, allowing the moisture to escape. It will smell like popcorn, but will not pop!
