Here is a pretty good breakdown of what all the different labeling terms really mean.Īs for my household, we don't mind paying more, BUT it has to be good. And if you are in the dark about food labeling, you probably aren't alone. So, this really comes down to priorities and the willingness to pay for that crate-free labeling.
