Banana Chips
Banana is the common name for herbaceous plants of the genus Musa and for the fruit they produce.
For the production of banana chips, the Saba and Cardava variety (Musa sapientum) are used. The vast majority of banana chips originate from the Philippines. Fresh bananas are picked in their mature green stage and then peeled, washed,
sliced and fried in vegetable oil to produce banana chips. Banana chips’ colour ranges from light to golden yellow and their flavour is sweet and mild. They are mainly consumed as a snack and as an ingredient in cereal mixes and granolas.=
