The only clue would be order of appearance on the list, and of course
that's only a matter of "more" and "less". On the two labels above
(marmalade and barbeque sauce) where they both they appear, they are
listed in the order I've shown them.

Marmalade: "Corn syrup, high fructose corn syrup..."

They are the first two listed ingredients.

As for the barbeque sauce, the first listed ingredient is "High fructose
corn syrup". The "corn syrup" comes WAY down the list, even below
the preservative monosodium benzoate.
