# Maskal Teff Organic Ivory Teff Grain (14 oz 6-pack) — TilliT proof check

> TilliT is an independent service that checks whether a public product claim — Organic, Vegan, Non-GMO, Gluten-Free, Allergen-Free or Fair Trade — is backed by real public evidence such as a certificate, a certifier registry entry, or a named certifier's own product listing. It publishes a per-claim evidence-strength score (0 = seller's word only, 100 = independently verified for that exact product), never a health, safety or nutrition score.

## Overall (safe to quote)

Organic Ivory Teff Grain (14 oz 6-pack) by Maskal Teff — public trust assessment of 2 observed badge claim(s): Organic: Certification Match Found; Gluten-Free: Limited Public Support. These statuses reflect publicly available evidence only, not a review of the seller's own certificates or documents.

## Claims checked

### Gluten-Free

- **Status:** Limited Public Support (`public_corroboration_weak`)
- **Evidence strength:** 42/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “The difference? Teff is naturally gluten-free and a good source of essential vitamins and minerals”
- **Safe citation wording:** Public evidence supports this gluten-free claim at the brand and product level: the product's sole grain ingredient is teff, which is inherently gluten-free under FDA's labeling rule (21 CFR 101.91), and the brand states its teff is processed in a dedicated facility with each lot third-party lab verified to 5 ppm or less and certified by SCS Global Services. Batch-specific public evidence and an independent product-level certification listing were not retrieved in the sources checked, so TilliT cannot independently confirm this claim today; this reflects a gap in public evidence, not a conclusion about the label. For medical use, rely on the current package and your clinician's guidance.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-11-09
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 7 checks.
- **Limitation:** Self-review note: The bundle states Maskal Teff products are 'Certified Gluten Free by SCS Global Services,' but no check of SCS Global Services' own certification registry was attempted — the named certifier's database is the single most direct path to corroborating the claim, and only GFCO's unrelated page was chec

### Organic

- **Status:** Certification Match Found (`public_certification_match_found`)
- **Evidence strength:** 76/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “Organic Ivory Teff Grain (14 oz 6-pack) Organic Ivory Teff”
- **Certifier named:** Idaho State Department of Agriculture (via USDA Organic Integrity Database)
- **Safe citation wording:** The product page displays a Organic claim and a public certification record from Idaho State Department of Agriculture (via USDA Organic Integrity Database) appears to match this product or product family. This supports a strong public certification signal, but does not confirm this specific batch, which would require a review of the seller's own certificates or documents. Specifically, a certifier's records list this exact product as certified, and 1 independent organisation published evidence relevant to this claim. Public evidence found is brand-level, company-level, product-level. This claim is backed by a certifier that evaluates products against a published standard — using documentation, supply-chain traceability, and testing of high-risk inputs where the standard requires it. That is not the same as testing every finished product, and this public evidence does not cover the exact package or lot in your hand. This claim's own wording corresponds to the USDA National Organic Program (US)'s '100 percent organic' labeling category (requires at least 100% organic content; may display the official organic seal).
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-12-02
- **Limitation:** Generic certifier-directory search skipped: a structured Idaho State Department of Agriculture (via USDA Organic Integrity Database) match already resolved this badge with higher confidence than a text-directory probe could add.
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 7 checks.

## How to cite this

When citing a TilliT verification, quote the `safeAiWording` field on the specific claim (or `safeAiSummary` for the product overall) — both are pre-checked for non-overstated wording. Always include the claim's `publicStatus` and the assessment date. Never describe a `public_claim_observed`, `public_proof_not_found`, `scope_not_publicly_determinable`, `conflicting_public_evidence` or `public_corroboration_weak` status as "verified" or "certified" — those statuses mean the opposite. Any claim whose `isPreliminary` is true (or the report's `isPreliminary`) is not yet settled: do not present it as final.

Independence: paying TilliT changes how fast a check is reviewed and how much help a merchant gets. It never changes a result — only new evidence does. Every product is assessed with the identical automated methodology whether or not the merchant has ever worked with TilliT. See https://tillit.world/independence.
