An ingredient is a substance that forms part of a mixture (in a general sense). For example, in cooking, recipes specify which ingredients are used to prepare a specific dish. Many commercial products contain a secret ingredient that is purported to make them better than competing products. In the pharmaceutical industry, an active ingredient is that part of a formulation that yields the effect required by the customer.

National laws usually require prepared food products to display a list of ingredients, and specifically require that certain additives be listed.

In most developed countries, the law requires that ingredients be listed according to their relative quantity in the product. If an ingredient itself consists of more than one ingredient (such as the cookie pieces which are a part of "cookies and cream" flavor ice cream), then that ingredient is listed by what percentage of the total product it occupies, with its own ingredients displayed next to it in brackets.

Why are there explanations for some ingredients but not others?
Q. On food/drink products with a lot of artificial ingredients, some of the the ingredients seem to have explanations in parentheses for their purpose in the product. Example: "sodium benzoate (preserves freshness), caffeine, sodium citrate, etc..." Why do some ingredients need explanations and other equally sketchy-sounding ones don't?

A. Because some only have one purpose whereas others have more than one. Some of these chemicals are used for others things. Like fireworks, mouth wash, silver polish, vinegar, jams, sodas, etc. It is naturally found in a bunch of fruits as well.
