HOW CAN I RECOGNIZE ORGANIC PRODUCTS? o If the product is packed, it should have a label which says that the product is organic. Also it should say the number of the certification of the product. o If you buy an organic product from stores you should ask the certificate that recognizes that the product is bio.
