It is possible to have a ingredient that in reality consists of multiple other ingredients. For instance ''fr:jus de soja'' can also be specified as ''en:water'' plus ''en:soybean''. On ingredients list this usually appears as ''jus de soja (eau, fèves de soja)'', i.e. the elements between parentheses define the real ingredients. The compound ingredients can also be seen as a (sub-)ingredient list.

Producers sometimes try to shorten the length of ingredients lists by suppressing repetition. For instance the entry ''vegetable fats (palm, sunflower)'' should actually be read as two elements: ''palm vegetable fat'' and ''sunflower vegetable fat''. In this case the parentheses act as method to avoid repetition.
