The best meals are those that offer USDA Certified Organic ingredients
✅ USDA Certified Organic: is a legal label that tells you a food or agricultural product was produced and handled under strict federal organic standards.
Core requirements
USDA organic standards require farming methods that cycle resources, promote ecological balance, and conserve biodiversity rather than relying on synthetic chemicals. In practice, this means operations must follow detailed rules for how crops are grown, animals are raised, and products are processed and handled.
What is prohibited
For crops, the standards prohibit synthetic pesticides and fertilizers, sewage sludge, most synthetic herbicides, and genetically modified organisms (GMOs). For processed foods, artificial preservatives, colors, and flavors are generally not allowed if the product is labeled organic.
