I don’t know what those tools are, but is this a type of principle components analysis? I’m guessing not because there are no axes labeled with principle components. Anyway, I feel like you could do what you’re trying to do with PCA and put different ingredients as different components (I have a very limited understanding of PCA though). Anyway I actually think it’s interesting visualizing the variation in things we lump into the same category, even when those categories are well founded.

UMAP is like a PCA in that they both do Dimension Reduction. UMAP seems to scale a bit better with lots of dimensions.
