Reviewed 3 times · Methodology v3.1 (updated 8 Oct 2026) — what changed

This banana chip snack is primarily a source of energy and fat due to being deep-fried in coconut oil. While banana provides some nutritional value, the high fat content, particularly saturated fat from coconut oil, and added sodium from common salt are significant nutritional drawbacks. It's best consumed in moderation as an occasional treat rather than a regular snack, especially for individuals monitoring their fat and sodium intake.

About this analysis: Based on declared label information and available evidence. Decode Label does not independently laboratory-test products, and a score is not a regulatory determination or medical advice.

Disclaimer: Safety scores are Decode Label-generated assessments based on publicly available regulatory data (FSSAI, WHO, EFSA, IARC) and peer-reviewed research. They are not a substitute for professional medical advice, and they are not a regulatory determination, a laboratory safety certification or a medical diagnosis. Ingredient safety can vary by individual health conditions, concentration, and usage context. Decode Label is an independent information service and scores every brand by the same rules. No brand pays for or influences its score. Our founder also founded the personal-care brand Botani Bestie (see our story); its products are scored exactly like everyone else's. Data limitations: This assessment is based on the information declared on the product label and the evidence sources above — Decode Label does not independently laboratory-test this product. Ingredient concentrations, sourcing and manufacturing can vary between batches and are not always disclosed. A finding that is not shown here means it was not identified from the available label information, not that it has been ruled out.
