What is this food?
AI-assisted
Chips and shrimp crackers are crunchy, salty snack foods made mainly from starchy ingredients, with shrimp flavoring. They’re usually eaten as a snack or “pang-meryenda,” not as a full meal.
Why it matters to health
AI-assisted
Per 100g, they’re high in calories (462 kcal) and carbohydrates (68.1g), with very low fiber (0.9g). They also have a lot of fat (18.4g), including high saturated fat (13.8g), and are high in sodium (740mg). Too much sodium can make it harder to manage blood pressure, and too much saturated fat can affect heart health over time. The good part: they’re convenient and can fit into your daily eating pattern when portioned well—especially if you balance them with meals that have vegetables, lean protein, and enough fiber.
Healthier tips
AI-assisted
  • Keep portions small: aim for a handful (about 25–30g) instead of eating straight from the pack.
  • Pair with something filling: have it with a glass of water and a side of fruit (like orange/banana/guava) or veggies (like cucumber/tomato) to add fiber.
  • Balance your day: since you already have 3 full meals plus 1–2 snacks, choose chips/shrimp crackers as one snack and keep the other snack lighter (e.g., yogurt, boiled egg, or fruit).
  • Watch frequency: enjoy occasionally, not daily, especially if you’re also eating salty viands or instant noodles.
  • If you can, look for lower-sodium or baked/less-oily versions.
