Default Help using the LARGE function "WITHOUT" using an array

Can someone show me how to accomplish the following by using the LARGE
function "WITHOUT" using an array ?

I'm trying to rank each product (most, second most, etc.) by weight.

Data worksheet

A B C
1 Product Type Pounds
2 Orange Fruit 600
3 Tomato Vegetable 500
4 Apple Fruit 700
5 Potato Vegetable 1,000


Using the LARGE function, the goal is to get the following result on
another worksheet:

Order worksheet

A B C
1 Product 1 2
2 Fruit Apple Orange
3 Vegetable Potato Tomato


On the Order worksheet, the following formula is the one I'm using
with an array:

{=IFERROR(INDEX(Data!$A$1:$C$5,MATCH(LARGE(IF(Data !$B$1:$B$5=
$A2,Data!$C$1:$C$5,""),B$1),Data!$C$1:$C$5,0),1)," ")}


Does anyone know how to get the same result without using an array -
even if it uses another function ?
