What the label tells us
Snack bắp Kara Mucho vị phô mai cay — spicy cheese corn snack. Yenzo rates it “Moderate”: fine in moderation. The main reasons are high saturated fat (13.7 g per 100 g) and medium salt (1.5 g per 100 g). A 60 g pack holds about 0.9 g of salt — 18% of the 5 g a day the WHO recommends adults stay below. It is also ultra-processed (NOVA 4), going by how Yenzo classifies its ingredients. Energy: 546 kcal per 100 g. Plus points: low in sugar.
Open Food Facts lists 5 additives with a code number — flavour enhancers: monosodium glutamate (621) and disodium 5'-ribonucleotides (635); aspartame (951), silicon dioxide (551) and citric acid (330). None of them is at “moderate” or “high” risk on the Yenzo Scale. Vietnamese labels often print an additive as its function plus its number, for example “chất điều vị (621)”.
Of the 25 snacks in the Yenzo catalogue, 22 others are also rated “Moderate”, and none is rated higher. Some products of the same kind list less saturated fat per 100 g: compare labels before you buy. See all snacks
