Few ingredients is code for white people’s ideas of food.

Example: Curry has and average of 10-15 ingredients. Malaysian 15-20. Thai: 15–20. China: 10–16. Indonesia: 20–25. Mexican Moles 20-30. Etc…..

note: I expect this is unintentional. The authors of the new recommendations think more ingredients = processed. But it still ends up being an accidental judgement against other cultures.

Indonesia — 20–25

Malaysia — 15–20

Thailand — 15–20

India — 12–18

Mexico — 12–18

Ethiopia — 14–18

China — 10–16

Vietnam — 10–16

Morocco — 10–15

South Korea — 10–15

Italy — 4–7

Japan — 5–8

France — 6–9

Spain — 5–9

Greece — 6–10

United Kingdom — 5–9

Germany — 5–9

Austria — 5–9

Switzerland — 5–9
