# Savory Banana Chips These 'Nana Chips by Bubba's Fine Foods Satisfy Without the Banana Flavor By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2019-01-21 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/banana-chips References: [prweb](https://www.prweb.com/releases/bubbas_fine_foods_to_shine_spotlight_on_paleo_snacks_during_fancy_foods_winter_show/prweb16018104.htm) & [bubbasfoods](https://bubbasfoods.com/collections/single-serves) At last week's Winter Fancy Food Show, presented by [Specialty Food Association](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chips-la-vie-en-rose), 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](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blazing-scorpion-chicken), 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. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.5/10 - Popularity: 35% | Activity: 33% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Health](https://www.trendhunter.com/health) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Banana-based Snacks:** Brands can explore incorporating bananas into savory snacks to diversify their product line and attract health-conscious consumers. - **Spice-centered Flavors:** Introducing spice-centered flavors in snacks can bring a fresh twist to traditional snacking, attracting flavor-seekers looking for unique taste experiences. - **Paleo-friendly Snacks:** Brands can capitalize on the trend of health-focused consumers by introducing Paleo snacks that are both delicious and healthy. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Snack Industry:** The snack industry can capitalize on the trend of banana-based, savory snacks that offer healthy and unique flavors to consumers. - **Health Food Industry:** The health food industry can leverage the trend of Paleo-friendly snacks that appeal to health-conscious consumers looking for healthy snack options. - **Sports Nutrition Industry:** Incorporating bananas into sports nutrition snacks can offer a healthy and natural source of energy for athletes and fitness enthusiasts. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Nutrient-Dense Plantain Snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bamba-foods-plantain-chips.md) - [Savory Plantain Nuggets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/plantain-nuggets.md) - [Seasoned Plantain Chip Debuts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chiquita-1.md) - [Seasoned Branded Plantain Snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chiquita-plantain-chips.md) - [Convenient Banana Bread-Flavored Snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/banana-bread-granola.md) - [Spicy Sweet Potato Snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/habanero-nacho-sweet-potato-chips.md) - [Spiced Plantain Chips](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zambos-with-tajin.md) - [Crunchy Fruit-Based Snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dole-good-crunch.md) - [Expertly Flavored Snack Chips](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-jacksons-sweet-potato-chips.md)
