Yuca chips are a crunchy snack made from thinly sliced yuca root, also known as cassava, a starchy tuber native to South America and widely used in Latin American, African, and Caribbean cuisines. These chips are typically fried or baked until crisp, offering a subtly sweet, nutty flavor and a satisfying crunch. Yuca chips are naturally gluten-free and provide complex carbohydrates, making them a source of quick energy. They also contain trace minerals like manganese and vitamin C. However, they are calorie-dense and can be high in fat and sodium, depending on preparation and seasoning. Baked versions are a healthier alternative to fried ones, offering a lower-fat option. Yuca chips are a flavorful way to enjoy a traditional ingredient, but they should be consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
