What the label tells us

Mì xào Samyang vị gà cay — spicy chicken stir-fried ramen. Yenzo rates it “Moderate”: fine in moderation. The main reasons are high saturated fat (7.9 g per 100 g) and high salt (2.8 g per 100 g). It is also ultra-processed (NOVA 4), going by how Yenzo classifies its ingredients. Energy: 429 kcal per 100 g.

Open Food Facts lists 8 additives with a code number — colours: riboflavins (101), annatto, bixin, norbixin (160b) and paprika extract, capsanthin, capsorubin (160c); flavour enhancer: monosodium glutamate (621); glycerol (422), guar gum (412), potassium carbonates (501(i)) and dextrin (1400). 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 “phẩm màu (101)”. There is also artificial flavouring (“low” on the Yenzo Scale).
