What is the difference between natural and organic when referring to food and products?
The difference lies in how the term is used to label food and products. To display the USDA green and white organic label the food or product must meet the federal government’s stringent guidelines. The standards made by the feds are intended to ensure and regulate specific growing and processing procedures are met during the production phase of a product. “All natural” is a figure of speech, anyone can claim that their product is “natural”, there is no way for the customer to be certain if indeed the product is as “natural” as it claims to be.
