Plantain Tostones, 5 OZ
What You Should Know
You'd spot this bag in the snacks or specialty aisle at Whole Foods or grab it when you want a crunchy, Latin-inspired chip for dipping at a casual gathering. It feels simple and a little nostalgic — an indulgent, savory snack made from sweet plantains rather than grains, with a clean ingredient list. The texture and flavor come from frying in sunflower oil and a pinch of sea salt; the lack of emulsifiers or preservatives suggests a processed (not ultra-processed) packaged snack made from whole ingredients.
