What is this food?
These are flavored chips/prawn crackers—crispy, salty snack crackers usually made from starch and oil, then seasoned for flavor.
Why it matters to health
Per 100g, they’re high in calories and high in fat, including high saturated fat. They also have very high sodium (about 750 mg) which can add up quickly if you snack often. On the plus side, they provide carbohydrates for energy, but they’re low in fiber (about 0.9 g), so they may not keep you full for long. Since they’re energy-dense, they’re best as an occasional snack—everything in moderation—especially if you already have 3 full meals plus 1–2 snacks in a day.
Healthier tips
- Keep portions small: aim for about 1 small handful or less per snack, instead of eating straight from the pack.
- Pair with something that adds fiber and protein: e.g., fruit, unsweetened yogurt, or boiled egg to help you feel fuller.
- Choose lower-salt options when available, or look for “less sodium” labels.
- Balance your day: if you snack on chips/crackers, reduce the chance of another salty snack later.
- Try baking/air-frying alternatives or swap to roasted nuts or popcorn (less oil, less salt) more often.
