Overall rating: 4.5/5
Summary: super thin, suuuper crunchy, and lightly salted. I still prefer the natural sweetness of Soldanza's Ripe Plantain Chips (reviewed here), *however*, I would definitely opt to buy Turbana if given the choice between the two simply because of the corporate social responsibility portfolio (see brand info below). Love love love.
Where to buy: buy online
Ingredients: green plantain, non-hydrogenated vegetable oil (palmolein) salt

These ingredients are simple and the nutritional profile isn't spectacular, but man, this is a snack I totally recommend. It has a nice dose of potassium and a decent 2g of fiber. Other than that, not too much going on, but its deliciousness makes up for it. I'd definitely buy this again.
