Banana Kick is a crunchy corn puff snack with a sweet banana flavor.
It sounds a little unusual, but trust me — one bite and you’ll get it.
It melts in your mouth with a soft, almost banana-milk-like sweetness.
Thanks to its light and gentle flavor, it’s especially popular among young kids in Korea.
It’s even considered a toddler-friendly snack, but honestly, adults love it just as much!
Fun fact: The one Jennie brought on the show had English on the package — yes, it's an export version!
🍽 Fun Ways to Enjoy It
The back of the Banana Kick packaging even gives you ideas to level up your snack game:
- Dip Banana Kick in melted chocolate 🍫
- Soak it lightly in milk 🥛
- Sprinkle Banana Kick powder on a banana milkshake 🍌
- Add crushed Banana Kick to vanilla ice cream 🍨
But honestly… most Koreans just eat it straight out of the bag. (Same here. 😂)
