Originated as a snack for school students, bánh tráng trộn has since gained popularity in all over Vietnam and with oversea Vietnamese communities.[6][7] Other popular ingredients are dried beef jerky strips, minced green mango, peanuts, fresh mint, basil, soft quail eggs and many kinds of sauces.[10][11][9][6][12] The chewy rice paper mix is a combination of sour, sweet, nutty, spicy and richness and can be further enhanced by the addition of fresh herbs and dressings.[14] In Vietnam, the dish is often served by street vendors in plastic bags or box, along with a set of chopsticks for easy consumption.[15][16] Bánh tráng trộn is often considered as one of symbols of Vietnamese street food culture, particularly in Southern Vietnam and Ho Chi Minh City.
