    Help with food question

    Hello,

    I need the simplest method to accomplish turning sheet 1 of the attached into sheet 2. A few things to keep in mind:
    1. I have over 1,000 "cuisines" and about 20,000 "types of food."
    2. On sheet two, we cannot have any repeats of cuisine. Each type of food matching to each cuisine needs to fit in one row with cuisine on the far left of each row and types of food in each cell going to the right.SAMPLE.xlsx

    Any help would be great appreciated. Thank you so much!
