Ever wondered what’s in an apple pie? Or, what ingredients go into a typical borscht?

Wonder no more! Introducing the amazing Ingred-o-Matic! from Foodista Labs. Give it a dish, and — it slices! it dices! — it purées away the fluff to identify the most common ingredients that go into making that very dish.

Well, not really. What we really do is query our extensive collection of structured recipe data, bin the results, and generate histograms of the ingredients.
