    Back to Nature (Kraft)
    Like many other large agribusiness concerns, Kraft has opted to market their products under a different trade name, leaving their corporate identity off of their packaging. Under the Back to Nature label they market a number of organic food items including breakfast cereals, crackers, and cheese. Their corporate offices responded to our questionnaire with a polite e-mail stating, “We would consider the information requested in this survey to be confidential and thus respectfully decline to participate.” We do not have information regarding where they procure their milk.
