Plantain Chips Regular Flavor 3 oz

$3.25

Mariquitas are the thin, salted plantain chips that show up next to a Cuban sandwich at every ventanita lunch counter in Miami — sliced lengthwise from green plantains, fried crisp, finished with salt. Nothing else.

This 3 oz bag is single-serve sized: enough for one merienda, one lunchbox add-on, or one round of dipping at a casual gathering.

Common Uses: eaten straight from the bag as an afternoon merienda, served alongside a media noche or pan con bistec, scooped through black bean dip or guacamole, set out in bowls at parties and dominos nights.

Cultural Context: Mariquitas are the Cuban answer to the potato chip — older, earthier, and tied to the tostones-and-plantain tradition that defines the island's table. In Cuban-American households, a bag in the pantry is the difference between a sandwich and a proper lunch.

Pairs With: Cuban sandwiches, croquetas, Materva or Ironbeer, mojo dipping sauce, fresh lime and a sprinkle of garlic salt.

Ships nationwide to households who grew up with mariquitas on the table and can't find them on the snack aisle up north.
