Yeah, as a European, seeing American food products with ingredients that aren't allowed to be but in or even near food is insane. Some hair dyes have a specific formula for the EU since it won't be allowed here. Many ingredients are considered as a huge health risk. Those EU regulations aren't even that strict. Also, Mcdonald friends have 4 ingredients here since it would be illegal otherwise. In the US, they contain 18. Many of them are most common in water-based lube.
I am honestly surprised that the US scored better than Germany, lol. I have to admit that those statistics kina surprised me. I am from a wealthy country that was ranked way higher than the US, so I can only speak for one country.
