How We Calculate the Score

Each cuisine's safety percentage is a weighted blend of two data sources:

Editorial frequency data (40% weight)

Each allergen in a cuisine is rated by how commonly it appears across traditional recipes:

  • Rare — 4 points
  • Usually avoidable — 3 points
  • Sometimes present — 1 point
  • Often present — 0 points

Dish-level safety ratio (60% weight)

For each selected allergen, we check every dish in the cuisine and count how many have that allergen marked as "unlikely." We average this across all your selected allergens.

This gives concrete, data-driven safety percentages based on real dish analysis rather than general patterns.

If a cuisine has no dish-level data, the score falls back to 100% editorial data.

Final score & tiers

The final percentage is 40% × editorial + 60% × dish ratio, then cuisines are grouped into tiers:

Best Match ≥ 75%Moderate 50–74%Use Caution < 50%
