About Banana cue

Banana Cue is a popular Filipino street food and snack made by deep-frying ripe saba bananas and coating them in caramelized brown sugar. Typically skewered on bamboo sticks for easy handling, it’s known for its golden, crispy exterior and sweet, indulgent flavor. Originating in the Philippines, Banana Cue reflects the country's love for simple, yet flavorful desserts that combine local ingredients. While saba bananas are rich in fiber, potassium, and vitamin C, providing essential nutrients, the dish’s nutritional value is offset by the added sugar and deep-frying process, which increases calorie and fat content. Despite its sugary coating, Banana Cue remains a satisfying occasional treat that showcases the versatility of bananas in Filipino cuisine. It's best enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
