How to Read and Understand Organic Food Labels

     Recently, I was shopping and found foods with several different organic labels on them and they looked very similar in quality and price.What is the difference between 100% organic and just organic on the label.I then searched for and found an article called Certified Organic Label Guide from Organic.org to teach me these differences so I know what I am buying.

This is what the article stated -

1. 100% Organic  Foods bearing this label are made with 100% organic ingredients* and may display the USDA Organic seal.
2. Organic  These products contain at least 95–99% organic ingredients (by weight). The remaining ingredients are not available organically but have been approved by the NOP. These products may display the USDA Organic seal.
3. Made With Organic Ingredients—Food packaging that reads “Made With Organic Ingredients” must contain 70–94% organic ingredients. These products will not bear the USDA Organic seal; instead, they may list up to three ingredients on the front of the packaging.
4. Other—Products with less than 70% organic ingredients may only list organic ingredients on the information panel of the packaging. These products will not bear the USDA Organic seal.
