What the label tells us
Bánh mì kẹp phô mai Staff — cheese sandwich bread. Yenzo rates it “Moderate”: fine in moderation. The main reasons are high salt (1.5 g per 100 g) and medium sugar (13.9 g per 100 g). It is also ultra-processed (NOVA 4), going by how Yenzo classifies its ingredients.
The label lists 6 additives with a code number — acidity regulator: lactic acid (270); emulsifier: sodium stearoyl-2-lactylate (481(i)); flavour enhancer: lipase (1104); preservatives: calcium propionate (282) and potassium sorbate (202); stabilizer: acetylated distarch adipate (1422). 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 ổn định (1422)”. The ingredients also name “hương liệu” (flavouring) without a number, so which substance that is cannot be told. There is also artificial flavouring (“low” on the Yenzo Scale).
Of the 2 bread in the Yenzo catalogue, 1 other is also rated “Moderate”, and none is rated higher. Some products of the same kind list less salt per 100 g: compare labels before you buy. See all bread
