Harvesting

Organic Dried Banana Chips are typically grown in tropical regions with warm climates, such as South America, Southeast Asia, and the Caribbean. Bananas are harvested year-round, but the peak season varies depending on the specific region. The fruit is typically picked when it is still green and then ripened off the tree to ensure optimal flavour and texture. Once harvested, the bananas are carefully sliced into thin chips and then dehydrated to remove the moisture, resulting in a crispy and flavourful snack. The natural raw product is rich in potassium, fibre, and essential vitamins such as vitamin C and vitamin B6. The vibrant yellow colour of the banana chips is a result of the natural ripening process and the retention of the fruit's inherent nutrients.

The organic nature of Organic Dried Banana Chips means that it is grown and harvested without the use of synthetic pesticides or fertilisers, preserving its natural composition.

Best Before

We believe in mindful consumption and want to share some insights on best before dates, especially when it comes to our dried foods. Best before dates indicate peak freshness and quality, not safety. Dried foods, such as grains and legumes, can often be safe and nutritious beyond their best before dates. They may lose a bit of their peak quality, but they remain a valuable and sustainable food source.

We encourage you to trust your senses. If stored properly and free from moisture, dried foods can maintain their safety and flavour for an extended period beyond the best before date. Embrace a less wasteful approach by exploring and using these ingredients even if they've passed their best before dates. Together, let's reduce food waste and maximise the full potential of every pantry staple.

Explore Waste Savers, where you'll find items approaching or past their best before date at reduced prices. Embrace conscious consumption, reduce food waste, and give these products a second chance. Your purchase not only saves you money but also contributes to a more sustainable and mindful approach to nourishment.

Packaging & Storage

You’ll receive your Organic Dried Banana Chips in a compostable kraft bag (unless you chose to get a compostable resealable pouch instead). These will be fine stored in the kraft bag for an extended time although, we recommend decanting and storing them in an airtight container to maintain optimum quality. Once decanted, you can save multiple bags and return them to us for a reward.
