Turon and Banana Que are two of the most favorite "meryenda" (snacks) among Filipinos which is commonly sold by local street vendors and usually available during afternoon.
Banana cues are deep fried ripe bananas (Saba aka Cardava) coated with caramelized brown sugar while it’s cooking. The fried bananas are placed on bamboo sticks for ease of eating. Since they look similar to barbecued meat just by being on a stick, thus, it was named “banana cue”.
"Turon" on the otherhand are also made up of bananas (Saba) which are thinly sprinkled with brown sugar and then rolled in a spring roll wrapper and fried. Other fillings can also be used, including jackfruit.

A heavy snack rich in calories and carbs ideal to wake you up during the sleepy afternoon at work.
