What is this food?
AI-assisted
Chips or prawn crackers—crunchy, savory snack made from starch (carbohydrates) and seasoned with salt, often with a prawn flavor.
Why it matters to health
AI-assisted
Per 100 g, it’s quite energy-dense (442 kcal) and high in carbs (74.2 g). It also has a lot of fat (13.1 g), with saturated fat at 9.83 g, which can be a concern if eaten often in big portions. Sodium is also high (751 mg), so frequent snacking can add up and affect blood pressure for some people. On the plus side, it’s low in sugar (2.2 g) and has a small amount of fiber (0.9 g). Since it’s a snack, it’s best to enjoy it in smaller portions and not replace whole meals.
Healthier tips
AI-assisted
  • Keep portions small: aim for a “handful” size, especially if you’re having it as a snack between meals.
  • Pair with a more filling option: have it with fresh fruit or unsweetened yogurt, or with a protein-rich snack (e.g., boiled egg) to balance your day’s intake.
  • Choose lower-sodium versions when available, and avoid eating it straight from the pack—portion first.
  • Use it as an occasional snack, not a daily habit, so your 3 full meals and 1–2 snacks stay balanced.
  • Balance the rest of the day: if you snack on crackers, keep your next meal lighter on fried/oily sides and sugary drinks.
