Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Tutu-Me chips special or unique?
Tutu-Me chips are handmade in small batches using 100% cold-pressed coconut oil and traditional Kerala recipes. Our chips are vegan, gluten-free, zero trans-fat, zero cholesterol, preservative-free, and tested by NABL-accredited labs.
What is so unique about Kerala banana chips?
Authentic Kerala banana chips are made from Nendran bananas, grown mainly in Kerala and some parts of Tamil Nadu. They must be made within 12 hours of plucking for perfect taste and texture.
Are Kerala banana chips healthy?
Yes, when made the right way! Nendran bananas are rich in fiber, potassium, and vitamins. Our chips use cold-pressed coconut oil and contain no preservatives — a clean, better-for-you snack.
Do you use vacuum frying or deep frying?
We use traditional deep-frying in cold-pressed coconut oil — the Kerala way — for authentic taste and crunch.
Why are Nendran bananas used for chips?
Nendran bananas are firmer and richer in fiber, holding shape beautifully when fried.
They have a natural sweet-savory flavor unique to Kerala.
Are all your banana chips made from Nendran bananas?
Yes, except for select flavors like Peri Peri and Black Pepper, which use Robusta bananas for balance and flavor.
Why are your banana chips costlier than other brands?
We use premium Nendran bananas and cold-pressed coconut oil. Our chips are handcrafted in small batches, ensuring freshness, quality, and traditional taste — a small premium for real goodness.
Do banana chips raise blood sugar?
Nendran bananas have a low glycemic index.
Combined with cold-pressed coconut oil frying, our chips are less likely to spike blood sugar.
Are Tutu-Me banana chips kid-friendly?
Absolutely! Kids can enjoy Classic Salted, Tapioca Salted or Tapioca Masala
(for kids with mild spice tolerance), made from just 3–4 natural ingredients.
