Merzci Banana Chips has found its way to our kids’ picky palate. Find out why this new treat from Merzci Pasalubong is tickling their taste buds.
The Special Merzci Banana Chips
Our daughters mostly prefer snacks made from natural ingredients. For example, they prefer my homemade oatmeal cookies over store-bought ones.

They also like salted peanuts, sunflower seeds, and boiled sweet corn. Another food item that adds variety to their afternoon snacks or after lunch pica-pica is the Merzci Banana Chips.
Why they Love the Special Banana Chips
I just have to say this — our kids totally love the Merzci Banana Chips! And without guilt, we indulge them in this healthy snack.
Read more why.
It’s all natural.
Since this simple snack is made primarily from fresh bananas, it is indeed all natural. It is simply dehyrated to last long and to achieve that crunchy, smooth, and satisfying texture.
No preservatives.
Merzci exports their special banana chips to China, which is the reason why it has a very nice packaging. If you will read closely, it has Chinese characters for the locals to understand.
Despite that, this product does not have preservatives. The long shelf life, which is about a year, is attributed to the process, handling, and secure packaging.
Enhanced with sesame seeds.
Without our prodding, our kids prefer healthy food. This is partly in thanks to their voracious appetite for books. They love to read and learn. And they know that eating nutritious food keeps them healthy.
Sesame seeds are a good source of fiber and of plant protein. The banana chips have some sesame seeds but not too much as to make it overpowering. But they make the chips more nutritious.
A delicious and nutritious snack.
The Merzci Banana Chips are so good. They are lightly sweet and crunchy, just enough to be comforting. Additionally, they are easy to chew, even for those who have dentures. A 100-gram pack is very filling and guilt-free, too.

Just make sure to let the kids drink water after eating to protect their teeth.

If you have young kids, you don’t have to send the entire pack for their baon. You may divide it into two or three servings and put in air tight containers for school.
Nice Packaging.
It seems that food packaging does affect one’s appetite. The Merzci Chips come in an attractive green and yellow packaging. It’s secure and air tight, too, to keep the product fresh.

Wow! Merzci Banana Chips are delicious and nutritious for the whole family. Great snack!
Me and my kids loves banana. Im sure they would also love banana chips from Merzci. Good to know that it doesn’t have preservatives. Is this by the way available in all leading supermarket?
I am not sure about supermarkets. But Merzci special banana chips are available in Merzci branches in Bacolod, Iloilo, Dumaguete, and Cebu. They don’t have a branch in Manila yet.
Have to try this Merzci Special Banana Chips. We’re drooling ? LOL
Another quality product by Merzci Paslaubong! The original Tanan Manamit kag Masustansiya na brand. .. Plus this Merzci special banana chips are now in promo packs.. Gotta Go and grab some before they are gone! ?
Will try this Merzci Banana Chips soon! Thanks for sharing mommy Sig! I hope my daughter will like it too.
Tried the Merzci special banana chips just last week. It was a big hit with the kids. They love it to the point I only tasted a few chips.? The week supply that I bought was wolfed down in 3 days time. Will need to buy more next time and try to save some for myself. haha Moms have to sacrifice.
Looking forward to try Merzi banana chips!They have their very 1st branch here in Cebu and just 1 ride from our home! My Mam loves banana chips and will surely buy for her. ?
Love it! Merzci Banana Chips is a healthier version of chichiria! ? But still as comforting. 🙂
Merczi Pasalubong is my go-to whenever I visit Bacolod and need to grab some pasalubong. Happy that it opened a branch here in Cebu. As a lover of banana chips (and a half-monkey perhaps?), i wanna try this!
Try it! You won’t regret it! 🙂 so affordable, too.
My wife has a friend from Bacolod and whenever she got a pasalubong from her friend, she is sharing it with us. I was able to taste the Merzci Banana Chips and I love how thin it is sliced, it is not too sweet, and crunchy. I am looking forward to taste again this export quality Merzci Banana Chips.
I have a friend who is from Bacolod and she will always bring us pasalubong from Merzci. I love its products especially this Merzci Banana Chips because it is thinly sliced with a right amount of sweetness and a crunchy feel that you can resist to finish this in one sitting.
Daw pinasugbo gali? ? Only crispy! I’d like to try it but I’m afraid I’d finish all 4+1 packs of Merzci special banana chips alone. You know why? ‘Coz I’m actually a “humankey”! Shhhh, I’m a human+monkey-in-1 hahaha! ?
Hahahaha basta yummy di ba? It’s true, I can finish 1 pack of Merzci banana chips in 1 sitting also. But not more than that because it’s filling! hahaha
I would gladly trade this healthy snack from my usual junk food binges. Hopefully these Merzci Pasalubong snacks, not just the banana chips, become available in Metro Manila.
I hope me & my whole fam can try it too! I think Merzci Banana Chips is one of the best snacks while watching netflix hehe.
Great snack! I would love to try their Banana Chips, looks so yummy.
