    Being mega pedantic, pasta has ingredients.

    But I understand your general point, you should be able to read the list of ingredients and understand what they all are right? Pasta being, flour, eggs, olive oil and salt is a much shorter list than whatever is in a microwave meal

      Once you start googling some ingredients it is very easy to see what things are for. People are surprised when you tell them chicken flavour is vegan. I still don’t think that is a bad thing.

      Just cramming in 5 types of sugar and the daily recommended dosis of salt. That is what frustrates me. Maybe a list of purposes would help.

      pretty much.

      it’s an oversimplification that works well enough. don’t get me started on flour though …

      (I’m of the opinion that if it didn’t have parents it isn’t food either but that doesn’t need to be a conversation)
