As Americans have become more and more conscious about where our food comes from the market for organic foods has grown exponentially. However, terms such as “all natural,” “organic,” or “hormone-free” has turned the healthy consumer into a confused one. Purchasing organic foods, especially produce, means that the food was harvested without the use of pesticides, insecticides or chemical fertilizers. Here is an easy reference to use when shopping for organic foods:
100% Organic – Foods that are completely organic or made with 100% organic ingredients may display the USDA seal.
Organic – Foods that contain at least 95% organic ingredients may display the USDA seal.
Made with organic ingredients – Foods that contain at least 70% organic ingredients will not display the USDA seal but may list specific organic ingredients on the front of the package.
Contains organic ingredients – Foods that contain less than 70% organic ingredients will not display the USDA seal but may list specific organic ingredients on the information panel of the package.
Thank you and congratulation for this information.
