CC's (pronounced sea-seas and short for “corn chips”) is an Australian brand of flavoured tortilla chips produced since the early 1980s, originally by The Smith's Snackfood Company, and currently by Snack Brands Australia.[1] CC's are predominantly sold in Australia and come in assorted flavours. CC's were also sold in New Zealand until Bluebird Foods (the owner of the CC's brand in New Zealand) decided to locally produce the American brand Doritos[2] in March 2010. However, the CC's brand returned to New Zealand shelves for a limited run in 2019,[3] and will return for a second run in 2023.[4] CC's are 100% Australian manufactured.
The chips are made of ground corn, vegetable oil, and seasoning. The full ingredients list is corn, vegetable oils (sunflower, palmolein), milk solids (cheese powder), food acids (270, 330, 331), flavour enhancers (621, 627, 631), starch (wheat, maize), vegetable powders (onion, tomato, garlic), salt, sugar, herbs, spice (cumin), flavour (natural and nature identical), yeast extract, vegetable extract (soy, wheat), antioxidants (304, 306).
