At last week's Winter Fancy Food Show, presented by Specialty Food Association, Bubba's Fine Foods introduced new Paleo snacks in the form of banana chips with spice-centered flavors. While the savory, single-serve products do feature banana chips as the primary ingredient, the snacks are flavored so that they don't actually taste like bananas—or as the brand puts it, "our green, low-sugar bananas taste like all chip, no ‘nanner." Bubba's Fine Foods has introduced varieties like Blazing Buffalo, which put a savory spin on banana chips with additions like garlic, cayenne, onion, mustard and celery seed.
These banana chips help to diversify the brand's range of gluten-free, grain-free, Paleo snacks, delivering healthy and flavorful options to sports fans, athletes and everyday consumers alike.
