Bangers expands caffeinated chips lineup
One of the new flavors has the same amount of caffeine as two cups of coffee.

Bangers Snacks, Inc., the San Francisco startup behind America’s first caffeinated potato chips, has announced the nationwide launch of Hot Mamba and Hot Mamba Charged, the latest additions to its energy snack lineup.
After the success of BBQ Charged and Paradise Charged, Bangers is releasing a spicy snack, Hot Mamba, and its counterpart, Hot Mamba Charged, has the same amount of caffeine as two cups of coffee.
“Bangers isn’t just launching another flavor—we’re pushing forward into the battlefield,” says Phillip Tran, CEO and founder of Bangers Snacks. “The big spicy chip brands have owned this space for years, but we’re coming in toe-to-toe with something entirely new. Hot Mamba brings real heat and real function, not just hype.”
The launch of Hot Mamba and Hot Mamba Charged expands Bangers’ existing lineup of caffeinated chips, which already includes the smoky, savory BBQ Charged and the bright, tropical Paradise Charged.
Priced around $2.99 per bag, Bangers Energy Chips deliver the same caffeine as energy drinks—in a crunchy, portable form—aiming to offer a functional boost for travelers, workers, and students through the holiday season.
