Change specific name:value pair in Javascript object

Question

I'm trying to simply write a function to convert one of the property values in my JS object to an integer - specifically, convert the weight property for each fruit from string ("200g") to an int (200)

var basket = [
  {
    name: "apple",
    weight: "200g",
    type: "fruit"
  },
  {
    name: "bananas",
    weight: "90g",
    type: "fruit"
  },
   ];

I'd like to write a fnc to convert the weight from str to int and then save the whole thing as a new JS object - new_basket. I'm not quite sure how to structure functions in JS but i have sthing like this:

for(var i=0; i<basket.length; i++) {
    new_basket = parseInt(basket.weight);
    console.log(new_basket)
}

I've seen examples with forEach but they would convert all the properties whilst i just would like all the weights converted. Thanks in advance!

var basket = [
  {
    name: "apple",
    weight: "200g",
    type: "fruit"
  },
  {
    name: "bananas",
    weight: "90g",
    type: "fruit"
  },
   ];

basket.forEach((data,i)=>{
  data['weight']=Number(String(data['weight']).replace('g',''))
})
console.log(basket);

Here you go, hope this helps. if so I'm glad!

basket.forEach((data,i)=>data['weight']=Number(String(data['weight']).replace('g','')));

in a single line, clean code do the modification to the existing array.
