New Whole Foods Policy Requires USDA Certification For Organic Body Care

摘要

Come June 1, 2011, personal-care products flashing the word "organic" on their labels must be certified under either the National Organic Program or "NSF/ANSI305" to be carried by Whole Foods stores, according to the natural retailer's new policy. "We believe that the organic claim used on personal-care products should have very similar meaning to the organic claim used on food products," states Senior Whole Body Coordinator Jeremiah C. McElwee in a June 8 letter to the chain's vendor partners.
