Savor Vietnam Safely: Your Guide to FPIES-Friendly Street Food

Vietnam's street food scene erupts with vibrant flavors – but for travelers with Food Protein-Induced Enterocolitis Syndrome (FPIES), navigating menus can feel like a culinary minefield. Traditional dishes often harbor hidden triggers like rice, soy, dairy, or oat derivatives. Imagine craving pho only to face hours of digestive distress after one accidental slurp. This is where the mm food app transforms anxiety into adventure.

The mm food app empowers diners effectively by:

1. Instant Menu Translation: Point your camera at any street vendor's Vietnamese menu. Our AI instantly translates dishes and ingredients into your native language, eliminating dangerous guesswork.
2. Smart FPIES Filter: Enter your specific triggers (e.g., rice proteins, soy, dairy) into the app’s customizable dietary profile. mm food scans menu items in real-time, flagging unsafe ingredients and highlighting verified FPIES-safe options with color-coded alerts.
3. Proactive Street Food Recommendations: Discover traditionally FPIES-conscious Vietnamese street foods that often pass our safety checks (always confirm with the app!):

• Grilled Pork Skewers (Thịt Nướng): Simple marinated meat (ask to omit soy-based marinades via app translation)
• Fresh Fruit Platters (Trái Cây): Naturally safe whole fruits like mango, dragon fruit, and pineapple
• Clear-Broth Seafood Soups (Canh Chua): Verify no rice noodles or soy additives using the app scan
• Banana Rice Flour Pancakes (Bánh Chuối Nướng): Often made without dairy or oats (confirm flour type via app)

Leverage mm food’s Offline Mode to analyze menus in remote market stalls without WiFi. Its alert system flags high-risk dishes instantly and suggests safe ingredient swaps when politely interacting with vendors ("Không đậu nành, làm ơn!" = No soy, please!).
