Fair enough, I’ve just seen on LFGSS many times folks acting like every thing in The US is prepackaged. It seems like the same amount between the two countries tbf.
I think it's all the US recipes that basically have pre-prepared stuff as part of the ingredients list that gives that impression. Loads seem to add a specific soup or something .

This is due to a lot of “family” recipes being originally found on the side of boxes. Some of the poorer regions are famous for having random ingredients as substitutions, Sprite cake being a favorite. Basically the soda adds a leveling agent and liquid so you can leave out eggs when making boxed cake.

My Irish MIL complained about how all the pastries in the US have too much sugar, yet the only place she would get breakfast when she was visiting was the Jewish bakery.
