Question
which characteristic must a food have to receive a
atural\ label by the fda?
produced on a farm with renewable resources
free of artificial ingredients
raw
unprocessed
The FDA defines a "natural" food as one that is minimally processed and free of artificial ingredients, colors, and flavors. While being produced on a farm with renewable resources (sustainable farming) is a good practice, it is not a requirement for the "natural" label. A "natural" food can be processed (as long as minimally and without artificial ingredients), so "unprocessed" is incorrect. Also, a "natural" food doesn't have to be "raw" (it can be cooked, baked etc. as long as no artificial ingredients are added).
