How to read these numbers. Lab-tested figures are one hawker plate analysed in a laboratory. Database figures come from Malaysia's MyFCD or Singapore's HPB SG FoodID. Our estimate means we added up sourced components ourselves. Stalls differ, so treat every number as a guide, not a promise. Not medical advice.
