Fruit is fruit. Like another poster mentioned, you could be consuming far worse products than banana chips.
With that beings said, dehydrated fruit at retail markets almost always is accompanied with added sugar or preservatives.
What I find alarming about the cited nutritional information is the fat content of banana chips. Bananas have almost no fat calories whatsoever. Therefore, there has been some sort of oil added to the product which produces those additional calories. Chances are, it's not olive, grape, flaxseed, sunflower seed, or coconut oil.
Just eat the fruit fresh like it's meant to be.
