Well obiously they aren’t showing “stake” and “soup” those are binary classifications. They are showing stake-like, soup-like and salate-like, which you can normalize to one. If you actually want to keep the last axis which is essentially a comment on how much the item fits within the space you can use dot color or size though I’d argue that it’s actually pretty much irrelevant for this comparison.
There's no way to fit salad (0,1,0), soup (1,0,0), and steak (0, 0.5, 0) on the same ternary plot because the first two points add up to 1 and the last one add up to 0.5.
