Why Jvapa Flat Rice Noodles scores EB2

Very low nutrient density
- Protein
- 3.4 g
- Fibre
- 2 g
- Vitamins and minerals
- Iron, Calcium, Potassium
- Energy
- 356 kcal
01 Nutrition density: why E
Protein is 3.4 g per 100 g and fibre is 2 g, so neither earns credit in the nutrition grade. Energy is 356 kcal per 100 g, almost all from 86.16 g of carbohydrate.
The small iron, calcium and potassium amounts are not enough to add a micronutrient bonus. With nothing to lift it, the grade stays at the bottom.
Scored on protein, fibre and twelve vitamins and minerals, against the Codex and FSSAI "source" and "high" levels, per 100 g and per 100 kcal. Protein also has to supply at least 12.5% of the calories to count, and 25% for full credit.

- Flagged
- None
02 Ingredient integrity: why B
The list is rice and water. No additives are present and nothing costs ingredient points. The pack has no label-integrity problems either.
The base is a single starchy ingredient with little protein, which limits how far the ingredient grade climbs.
Scored on how processed the ingredients are, which additives are used and why, and whether the label keeps its promises.
Low risk
- Sodium
- 5.6 mg
03 Load risk: why 2
Risk is a 2 and comes almost entirely from energy: 356 kcal per 100 g of dry noodles. Sugar and saturated fat are 0 g in the calculation.
Sodium is 5.6 mg per 100 g, a negligible part of the risk. Without the energy figure, the product would sit lower still.
Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.

Does Jvapa Flat Rice Noodles live up to its claims?
Made with just rice and water holds, and so does the gluten-free claim. Cholesterol free is true but says little for a rice product, and the pack shows two different net weights.
- Product nameHolds
“Flat Rice Noodles”
Rice is the first ingredient, and the only one apart from water.
- On the packHolds
“Made with just Rice & Water”
The ingredient list reads rice, water, and no additive is listed.
- On the packHolds
“Naturally Gluten Free”
Neither rice nor water contains gluten, and no gluten-containing ingredient is listed. No allergen statement is printed.
- On the packBe careful
“Cholesterol Free”
True, since the noodles hold only 0.36 g fat per 100 g and no animal ingredient. But any plain rice product could say the same, and it says nothing about the 86.16 g carbohydrate.
- On the packBe careful
“Net weight 350 g”
The front says 350 g and the back says 250 g. The nutrition values are per 100 g, so they are unaffected.
What's in Jvapa Flat Rice Noodles?
Rice and water are the whole list. There are no additives to watch, and the noodles are nearly all starch.
2 ingredients listed. None of them is an additive or watched ingredient in our research.
The ingredient list, read for you
Rice leads the list and water follows. That is the whole ingredient list: no added salt, oil, flavour, colour or preservative. The noodles are simply rice made into a flat ribbon.
The label numbers, read for you
Per 100 g of dry noodles, carbohydrate is 86.16 g and energy is 356 kcal, and these decide the score. Protein is 3.4 g and fibre is 2 g, both small. A typical 70 g dry serve gives about 249 kcal, 2.4 g protein and 1.4 g fibre.
Fat is 0.36 g and sodium is 5.6 mg per 100 g, so the noodles add almost no fat or salt before cooking. Iron, calcium and potassium are declared in small amounts. No sugar is listed and no serving weight is printed.
What it doesn’t have
- No serving weight is printed, so the per-serve column repeats the per-100 g figures.
- Protein and fibre are low, so the noodles need other ingredients to make a balanced meal.
What to know about Jvapa Flat Rice Noodles
Rice and water, and almost nothing else
Jvapa Flat Rice Noodles (3 mm) are dry flat noodles with a two-item ingredient list: rice and water. They are sold for Thai and Vietnamese cooking, with pad thai and pho named on the front, and they suit buyers who want a gluten-free noodle with nothing added.
Per 100 g of dry noodles you get 356 kcal, 86.16 g carbohydrate, 3.4 g protein, 2 g fibre and 0.36 g fat. Sodium is 5.6 mg, which is close to nothing. Iron (1.06 mg), calcium (24.24 mg) and potassium (18.35 mg) are declared, but in small amounts.
The pack's promise of just rice and water is exactly what the list shows. The weak side is nutritional: the noodles are almost pure starch. The front says 350 g and the back says 250 g, so the pack size is unclear. CleanPlate scores it EB2.
