For example, in Europe McDonald's French fries contain 3 ingredients (potato, salt, oil) and in the US there are around 20 ingredients... The US adds all that extra shit to make the frier oil last longer, to make it easier to clean, etc. and fuck you for being poor if it gives you cancer.

That's actually a very poor example because the US and Europe have very different regulatory frameworks. The US actually requires more details when listing ingredients than Europea does.
