it is law within the EU that all ingredients are displayed on packaging in order of size i.e the largest ingredient 1st and so on down to the smallest. Must also list ingredients in order to advise consumers who have certain Allergies eg nut allergy that can kill, also for nutritional value

The ingredients are listed in order of their amount in the product. First ingredient is the biggest percentage. This lets you compare to see if you are getting what you are paying for or just getting a cheaper filler of some sort.
