Is it REALLY organic???? I know whether if a product is truly organic or not can often be confusing because there are so many loopholes FDA regulations has for these big companies slip through the cracks. For example, a product can be certified as Organic if it conforms to some of the "loophole FDA regulations." A product maybe "considered" Organic" if the "process" in which it's grown is organic could be certified as organic! In this case it really doesn't even matter if the seeds used in growing a particular produce is GMO or not.

The surest way to tell if a product is truly organic is by its UPC code; like the example shown here..the first number has to start with a "9."

So don't let them fool you with the packaging, always check the UPC code if you aren't sure!
