What the label tells us
Xúc xích tỏi GO! — garlic sausage. Yenzo rates it “Sometimes”: several nutritional or additive concerns. The main reasons are high saturated fat (19 g per 100 g) and high salt (1.7 g per 100 g). It is also ultra-processed (NOVA 4), going by how Yenzo classifies its ingredients.
The label lists 9 additives with a code number — acidity regulator: sodium lactate (325); colours: cochineal, carminic acid, carmines (120), Allura red AC (129) and erythrosine (127); flavour enhancer: monosodium glutamate (621); diphosphates (450(iii)), triphosphates (451(i)), ascorbic acid (300) and polyphosphates (452(i)). At “moderate” risk: Allura red AC (E129) and erythrosine (E127). The rest are at “low” or “very low” risk. Vietnamese labels often print an additive as its function plus its number, for example “chất điều chỉnh độ acid (325)”.
Of the 9 sausages and processed meat in the Yenzo catalogue, 1 other is also rated “Sometimes” and 7 are rated higher. Some products of the same kind list less saturated fat per 100 g: compare labels before you buy. See all sausages and processed meat
