Sesame Chips

Sesame chips are small, baked or fried crackers made from a dough that primarily consists of sesame seeds and flour. They are often seasoned with salt or other spices. The chips are typically baked until golden brown and crispy.

Sesame chips are used as a crunchy snack component or a textural element in various food products. They are frequently added to snack mixes, trail mixes, and as a topping for salads or soups. Their nutty flavor and crisp texture enhance the overall appeal of these foods.

Sesame seeds are a source of nutrients like healthy fats, protein, and minerals. The FDA considers sesame a major food allergen. While generally recognized as safe when consumed as food, the FDA has specific regulations for sesame as an allergen. JECFA and EFSA have evaluated sesame and its components, but no specific health advisories are typically associated with their consumption in moderate amounts as part of a balanced diet.
