The European Union already has 24 official languages. They are Bulgarian, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Estonian, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hungarian, Irish, Italian, Latvian, Lithuanian, Maltese, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish and Swedish. To have one official language would not be practical given the amount of different languages spoken in the 28 member countries, so it would not be helpful. That is why it has so many official languages and not one single official language.

Some countries have different languages within them and languages spoken by minorities, but even some of the smaller languages have official recognition even though there are not many people speaking them in those countries.

Is it possible to market a product in an EU country that only has a list of ingredients in another EU language?

For the sake of consumer protection. No. The ingredents would need to be supplied in the official language of the member state.
