What the label tells us
Nước mắm pha sẵn Longdan tỏi ớt — instant fish sauce with garlic & chilli. Yenzo rates it “Moderate”: fine in moderation. The main reasons are high sugar (23.9 g per 100 ml) and high salt (6.5 g per 100 ml). It is also ultra-processed (NOVA 4), going by how Yenzo classifies its ingredients. Plus points: low in saturated fat.
Open Food Facts lists 3 additives with a code number — flavour enhancer: monosodium glutamate (621); preservative: potassium sorbate (202); ascorbic acid (300). 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)”.
