No it is not fattening.  It obviously depends on the way you cook it, usually it is deep fried like chips which is unhealthy as you know, but it is delicious just garnish with lemon juice and a sprinkle of chilli powder mmmmm !!

Answer 4

It is a root vegetable that is very starchy, very rich in carbohydrates, but deficient in protein, fat, some minerals and vitamins.  

95% of the calories come from carbohydrates compared to just 2% coming from fat. 3% of the calories comes from protein.

There are approx. 160 calories in a 3.5oz serving so no they are not fattening if eaten in moderation although they do contain more calories than many other vegetables due to the high carb content.
