Description Suitability of flexible packages and inert gas packing in sealed tins for storing fried Nendran banana chips was investigated. It was found that for banana chips fried in fresh coconut oil, 300 gauge high density polyethylene and 400 gauge low density polyethylene bag packing are satisfactory up to 2 months while packing in tins under CO2 is satisfactory up to 6 months at room temp. (28-32 degree C). But banana chips fried in 'marvo' oil, (a hydrogenated vegetable oil containing 0.02% BHA) and packed in sealed tins under CO2 were quite good up to 6 months whereas the chips fried in groundnut oil and packed under similar conditions were inferior in quality. Addition of turmeric powder at 0.10-0.15% level during frying enhanced the colour of the chips which was stable up to 6 months in sealed tins under inert gas packing.
