What's the difference between "Organic" and "Natural" or "All Natural"?

Question

What's the difference?

Answer 1

organic is the chemicals which is made by the man in factory  and natural is which is done by its own and survive its own synthesis.

Answer 2

Neither really has a legal definition any more than the word "healthy." Manufacturers and marketers use them any way they wish and the American public assumes it's regulated and somehow better for them.

Read labels if you really care what you're eating.

Answer 3

Organic is regulated by the USDA and all farms claiming organic status must keep excellent records of everything applied to the soil, seeds and harvest records plus practice crop rotation not use GMO seed, sewage sludge, buy from approved sources (i.e seeds should be certified organic). farms are inspected at least annually by a bonafide by the USDA organic inspector before certification is approved. If a farm is not certified organic by the USDA the farm faces heavy fines for using the term "organic" unless they gross under $5000 a year (which would be a small farm, and they still have to follow the regulations) check out http://www.ams.usda.gov/nop for the 1500+ page regulation

Natural/Naturally grown has no regulation and anyone can make that claim on any product

Answer 4

Organic has organs, like a Wurlitzer

Natural goes around with no clothes on

All Natural is like a naked organ...and that's disgusting.

Answer 5

Organic has  NOT been sprayed with pesticides to kill bugs that come to the  plant.    All natural has nothing on it but just pure natural rain water and plant food.     It doesn't make the food taste different...just more expesnsive with organic.        If you wash your vegetables very good, you should not have a problem with pesticides either.

Answer 6

Actually, none. It is a marketing gimmick. In some states or regions there are local organizations that certify "natural" or "organic" but most of the time they only restrict what pesticides, herbicides or fertilizers that can be used to gain certification.
