Banana Chips
Philippine banana chips are ordinarily round in shape similar to thick poker chips, because the bananas used are cut crosswise.
In recent years, long-cut banana chips, in which the bananas are sliced lengthwise, have become popular.

Peanut Kisses
Peanut Kisses are the #1 Boholano delicacy. They are cookies whose main ingredients are peanuts, sugar and egg whites… Inspired by Hershey’s chocolate kisses!
Dried Mangoes
For decades, packaged dried mangoes from the Philippines, particularly those for export, have been dry and tough because of the addition of sugar and preservatives. The texture had become familiar and expected to regular eaters of this snack.
Recently though, the trend has been towards bringing to market “all-natural dried mangoes” which are moist and tenderly chewy.
