<p><strong>Coral Gables, FL</strong><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding">Turbana is debuting its Skinny Dippers. The product is the newest addition to Turbana's line of all-natural plantain chips. The naturally curved Skinny Dippers are made with fresh plantains, vegetable oil, and salt and contain no trans fat or cholesterol, and are GMO and gluten-free. The item is “simply” healthy.<hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding">The Turbana plant is located in the plantain farming region, giving Turbana a competitive advantage allowing the plantains to make the trip from harvest to the Turbana plant in a very short amount of time. This ensures freshness for each plantain chip, according to a press release.<hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding">"To kick off summer we are excited to introduce a healthy product that compliments a variety of classic summer dips, as well as tasting great when eaten solo," said Marion Tabard, Marketing Director for Turbana. "Everyone is getting ready for barbeques, birthday parties, Fourth of July, and Skinny Dippers are easy to scoop with and a healthy alternative to traditional potato chips."<hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding">The plantains are sliced very thin to ensure minimal oil absorption and improved crispness. Packaged in bags made from high-barrier bi-oriented polypropylene aluminum, the chips have a shelf life of about nine months. An ethically and socially responsible company, Turbana ensures that consumer purchases of Skinny Dippers directly contribute to the sustainability, prosperity, and growth of the Colombia farming region. </p><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><p><a class="btn btn-sm btn-primary col-lg-12" style="white-space: normal;" href=" http://www.platanicious.com/" target="_new"> Turbana</a></p><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding">
