Cassava chips

Cassava chips are pieces of cassava root, a starchy root vegetable. The data supplied are based on literature sources and calculations from raw cassava; no cooking method is specified. Per 100g, they provide 91g of carbohydrate, 1507 kJ of energy, 0.4g of fat and 820mg of potassium. Carbohydrate is the main nutrient provided.

Carbohydrate supplies energy for the body, while potassium supports normal nerve and muscle function. For people monitoring their energy, fat or salt intake, preparation is worth noting: frying or adding oil or salt can change the nutritional content. These figures may therefore differ from those on packaged cassava chips. Full nutritional figures are shown in the tables below.

About these figures

Values are per 100g of the food as described (Literature sources and calculation from raw). "Trace" means only a very small amount was found. Nutrients that were not measured are not shown. Salt is calculated from sodium.

These figures come from an older part of the dataset that is no longer updated. Original source: Vegetables, Herbs and Spices Supplement, 1991.
