Banana Chips

Banana Chips are thin slices of banana that are typically fried and sweetened to make a crunchy snack; they appear in tropical cuisines and as a popular packaged snack worldwide. Nutritionally they are calorie-dense and high in saturated fat — containing 29g of saturated fat per 100g — because many commercial varieties are fried and coated; they do provide some fiber and small amounts of micronutrients such as vitamin B6 and manganese. As a snack, Banana Chips are best enjoyed occasionally: they are often ultra-processed and relatively low in protein, so swapping them for fresh fruit or an unsweetened dried option gives a more nutrient-dense alternative.
