Yes, this is why it is always important to read the labels and to look for the organic certification seals.

Although, sometimes the labels need to be questioned also. As in the case of QAI. Read here-QAI, World's Largest Organic Certifier, Still in Bed with Horizon & Aurora Certifying Factory Farm Practices as 'Organic'
