Do you know what \u201ccage-free\u201d means? How about \u201cfree range\u201d? \u201cPasture-raised\u201d?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Some of the terms used on food labels are official certifications, enforced by the USDA or a nonprofit entity, and the presence of the certification means that the farming operation has been verified in some way for compliance. Other common terms or phrases refer to qualities that are not regulated at all. This means that companies can use these phrases on their packaging whether they conform to a consumer\u2019s understanding of what that label means or not. To make things even more complicated, many certifications require a lot of labor, effort and expense on the producer\u2019s behalf, meaning that small farms can be at a disadvantage when it comes to garnering these certifications, even if they meet the requirements.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As a consumer, it can help to understand what you are looking at and what it means. Below is a list of definitions for common phrases on food labels. But there are many more beyond the ones we have listed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

To help you evaluate their meaning, ask yourself these questions: If it\u2019s a certification, who is the governing body and how do they verify compliance? If it\u2019s not a certification, does the company clarify what it means by the term? Can I find additional information about the product separate from the words used on the label?<\/span><\/p>\n

Certified and\/or regulated<\/b><\/h2>\n

USDA Organic:<\/strong> You can find this certification on meats, dairy products and produce. <\/span>This certification<\/span><\/a> prohibits the use of synthetic pesticides and fertilizers. Genetically modified organisms (GMOs) are also not considered organic. For meats with this label, synthetic growth hormones are not permitted, and the animals must have been fed a diet that is 100 percent organically grown. This certification requires inspection to verify that standards are being met. After certification has been granted, the operation must be inspected annually to maintain compliance.<\/span><\/p>\n

Cage Free:<\/strong> This term refers to poultry that live indoors without cages and have access to food and water. The USDA does not define how big this indoor space must be. Verification of these parameters <\/span>varies widely<\/span><\/a>, according to the USDA. The <\/span>Quality Assessment Division<\/span><\/a> of the USDA will verify a cage-free operation during paid grade and certification services.<\/span><\/p>\n

Free Range:<\/strong> This means that the animal spends part of its time outside, uncaged. However, there is no regulation of the amount of time that the animal may actually spend outside, nor how big the outdoor space is. The outdoor space can be fenced or netted in. Farms must provide proof to the <\/span>USDA Food Safety and Inspection Service<\/span><\/a> of free-range conditions.<\/span><\/p>\n

Naturally Grown:<\/strong> This certification is an alternative to the \u201cUSDA Organic\u201d label. The process to be certified \u201cUSDA Organic\u201d can be cumbersome for farmers, so the \u201c<\/span>Certified Naturally Grown<\/span><\/a>\u201d label uses the same requirements but is verified by a team of CNG farmers, not the USDA. Be aware\u2014this is different than when the word \u201cnatural\u201d or \u201call-natural\u201d appears alone on a label. See the list of items not backed by certification or regulation for more information.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Fair Trade:<\/strong> The <\/span>Fair Trade USA<\/span><\/a> certification was developed to help ensure fair working conditions for farmers and growers on some commonly imported products such as chocolate, tea, coffee, honey, bananas and more. Fair Trade USA checks for things such as fair wages, safe working conditions, lack of child labor and ability to unionize. <\/span>However, there have been multiple documented instances of companies achieving this certification <\/span>without meeting labor standards<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Animal Welfare Approved:<\/strong> This certification is not administered by a governmental body but by the nonprofit <\/span>A Greener World<\/span><\/a>. Farms that receive this certification raise their animals in pasture or on range and allow the animals to behave and move in a way that supports their well-being.<\/span><\/p>\n

Certified Regenerative:<\/strong> A Greener World also provides a certification regarding regenerative practices\u2014farming intended to be better for the environment. But it is also worth noting that this is not the only certification program evaluating regenerative standards, and there is <\/span>some debate<\/span><\/a> in the industry about what exactly being certified \u201cregenerative\u201d should mean.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

American Humane Certified:<\/strong> This certification is granted by <\/span>American Humane<\/span><\/a> to practitioners of animal agriculture. It claims to use a scientifically informed set of criteria to evaluate whether animals are being raised in suitable and healthy living conditions\u2014everything from enough space to access to shade. <\/span>However, <\/span>animal welfare advocates have called the<\/span> certification an example of humane washing because it still allows for practices such as caged confinement.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Grassfed:<\/strong> For grazing animals such as cows, the <\/span>USDA defines \u201cgrassfed\u201d<\/span><\/a> as animals that have access to grass or other pasture forage during the growing season and derive the majority of their nutrients from this source. It does not set parameters for pesticides, growth hormones or antibiotics.<\/span><\/p>\n

Non-GMO Project Certified:<\/strong> This certification is run by nonprofit organization <\/span>the Non-GMO Project<\/span><\/a>. It is granted to products that do not use genetic engineering.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Organic

Pasture-raised:<\/strong> This does not require third-party verification, so it\u2019s hard to know what it means to the producer. It is best if you can find additional information to verify that the animal does indeed spend a significant amount of time in the pasture. If you\u2019re looking at meat from a ruminant animal, \u201ccertified grassfed\u201d will mean more than \u201cpasture-raised.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Raised Without Hormones:<\/strong> This term is mostly for cattle, which are sometimes supplemented with growth hormones such as rBGH to make them grow bigger and faster. Operations must <\/span>submit documentation<\/span><\/a> to the USDA to show that they do not use hormones. The USDA does not allow hormones to be used for poultry or pork, so don\u2019t associate this with a mark of quality on these items.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Raised Without Antibiotics\/No Antibiotics:<\/strong> This term is used in animal agriculture to denote that the animal has not been raised with antibiotics, something that can help animals to grow bigger and faster. However, earlier in 2023, the USDA announced that it will <\/span>begin an evaluation process<\/span><\/a> to determine if more intensive verification is necessary.<\/span><\/p>\n

Not backed by certification and\/or regulation
\n<\/b><\/h2>\n

All-natural:<\/strong> The term \u201cnatural\u201d on egg, poultry and meat products means that they are \u201cminimally processed and contain no artificial ingredients,\u201d <\/span>per the USDA<\/span><\/a>. However, many other items carry this term that do not fall under the USDA category of meat, poultry or eggs. There is no standard definition of \u201c<\/span>all-natural<\/span><\/a>.\u201d Look for further explanation on the rest of the label or company website to find out what this means to the company. Seeing this phrase on a food label does not inherently convey meaning or guarantee anything.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Eco-friendly\/Climate Positive:<\/strong> Many labels claim that their product is environmentally friendly, but these are not quantifiable terms. Look for additional information about how the product benefits the environment or sustainability in general.<\/span><\/p>\n

Local:<\/strong> The USDA defines local as within the state of provenance or within 400 miles of its production point. But this is a widely interpreted term and different producers\/companies may have varying definitions of what this means.<\/span>
