The Take

Curry earns a 19 slop score. Traditional builds deliver ancestral fuel through spices, meat and fat while modern defaults add the sludge.

Ghee or tallow versions stay pre-1990 tier. Instant packets and most restaurants do not.

The Verdict

Make it yourself with single-ingredient upgrades. Ancestors approve, modern gut flora stays less confused.

Skip the jar. Make it with bone broth and grass-fed ghee — single-ingredient upgrade, zero corporate mystery. Slop Score: 19.
