So where is the FDA "organic" stamp on this product. And the online certification that is non-GMO organic???

non-gmo is not necessarily organic. those are two distinct variables. i have been buying this product for quite a while now and i have never known them to advertise as "organic". perhaps a better way to answer you is so say... organic automatically means non-gmo, BUT non-gmo does not automatically mean organic.

Go to the company's website palousebrand.com; scroll down and you will see the non-GMO info. Also, lick on identity preserved and you can see right where your garbanzo's were grown.

Do not see an "organic" stamp. Does have a QR tag to gain additional info. Checked two other products that I purchased (split peas and lentils) and both have a sticker on the back of the bag that they are non-GMO. Garbanzo beans might have also had this tag but I may have removed since I have used 1/2 the bag.

I don't see any "certification" on any supplement I've purchased....I just try one and decide to continue buying it or to change; it is next to impossible to be sure...Once a company, after my complaint, has sent me a guy with a parchment - to "certify" their 100% Kona coffee..it was NOT (they were selling a blend of who-knows-what). If FDA ever touches supplements, it will be the end of it...

The package is not labeled as organic or non-GMO so I wouldn't expect either. Maybe the distributor will read this and answer.

As previous posters note, the current label does say Non-GMO. I think the confusion comes from an earlier label for the product which does not have the Non-GMO notation. In years past, GMO crops weren't 'on the radar' like they are now. This seems to be a quality product.

This product has a classification of "non-GMO". We hope to feature that on the updated label. Thanks. Assertive Wellness

Hi Vanessa, the package states that it's USDA certified organic, no mention of GMO. Ingredients are Organic Golden Soybeans, Water. further info: for North America: made under the direction of & distributed by Opal S.Y. International, Boston, zip etc., MA www.exploreasion.comProduct of China.I'd say if the certified organic doesn't satisfy you, I'd go to that website and email them, see what they tell you about GMO. Don't think China is that hot to trot on GMOs yet, but just you wait.....Hope that helps, and they are good!Iney

Great question....... Typically we try to go the "Organic" route on most of our foods as well.......but if you did your homework you will see the the gov't owns the rights to the term "organic" as far as store bought foods is concerned, so how honest are they really being is the question? Now, why I continue to buy this product is that fact that they are oats off of a non-GMO (genetically modified organisms) farm, which to me, goes farther than putting an "organic" label on something. Not sure I fully answered your question, but I am up to this point still a strong advocate of Bob's Red Mill Rolled Oats. Especially good with Raw unpasteurized honey and raw/organic cinnamon!

All certified organic products must be non-GMO. Genetic modification is not allowed for products sold as "organic".

It states on the bottle Non-Gmo and no preservatives added; no certified organic logo on the bottle

Was wondering the same... this is a useful link to answer this for the future: http://blog.bostonorganics.com/wordpress/2013/10/24/avoid-gmos-the-difference-between-organic-and-non-gmo-labels

I know it is labeled organic. I can look at the label when I get home and see if it says Non-GMO Verified and respond again.

You should check out the USDA website because it states the FDA does not define or regulate the term "organic," as it applies to cosmetics, bodycare, or personal care products. The company can request the USDA/NOP certify its product as "organic" so that it can use the USDA organic seal.

If it doesn't say organic on the label, then its not. If it doesn't say non GMO on the label, then its GMO. Organic means no pesticides and non GMO. Non GMO obviously means non GMO. They way they have chosen to market this item makes it seem as if it is a GMO product that has not been grown with pesticides.

It is organic, I did not check for "certified non-GMO" label. Description on Amazon says Certified Organic by QAI and Kosher approved. Generally wheat flour is Non-GMO unlike corn.

Yes it is. The newest labels have the NON GMO VERIFIED LOGO as well as the organization's web address. FYI: even with the slackened USDA Organic certification, nothing can be "Organic" if it contains any GMO ingredients. Enjoy the peanut butter; dark roasted is amazing!

It is non-gmo, but not organic. We have discussed offering an organic version down the road depending on desire for it.
