Detailed explanation-1: -All ingredients must be listed in descending order by weight, including added water. Remember: The first ingredient listed is present in the largest amount by weight. The last ingredient listed is present in the least amount by weight.

Detailed explanation-2: -Study the Ingredients List. Product ingredients are listed by quantity-from highest to lowest amount. This means that the first ingredient is what the manufacturer used the most of. A good rule of thumb is to scan the first three ingredients, as they make up the largest part of what you’re eating.

Detailed explanation-3: -Ingredients must be listed in order of weight, with the main ingredient first according to the amounts that were used to make the food. Some foods are exempt from the need to display an ingredient list, for example: fresh fruit and vegetables, carbonated water and foods consisting of a single ingredient etc.
