Wholesome Valley (Galaxy Foods) Organic American cheese might be the dairy equivalent of the “organic Twinkie,” but as with many other processed foods, consumers who want a certain product or convenience are well served if it includes organic ingredients. Caveat emptor; organic ingredients does not necessarily equate to healthy food. This corporation chose not to participate in our study. |
