# Carrington Farms Organic Crounons - Garden Herb — 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 Crounons - Garden Herb by Carrington Farms — public trust assessment of 4 observed badge claim(s): Organic: Limited Public Support; Vegan: Limited Public Support; Non-GMO: Limited Public Support; 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:** 16/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “Product tag: "Gluten Free"”
- **Safe citation wording:** Claim supported. This kind of Gluten-Free claim can be made in the US without a third-party certificate. TilliT read the available ingredient statement and the applicable evidence and found nothing that contradicts it. This is not a statement that the product is third-party certified. The public-evidence score describes how much independent proof was found; it does not mean the product is not Gluten-Free. Specifically, the brand has publicly stated related credibility information. Batch-specific public evidence was not retrieved in this assessment. Under FDA's gluten-free labeling rule (21 CFR 101.91), this claim is voluntary and needs no third-party certification program or specific test method, but the product must meet the legal definition (under 20 ppm gluten). TilliT did not find independent public product-level testing or certification in the sources checked, so TilliT cannot independently confirm this claim today — that is a gap in public evidence, not a sign the label lacks legal support. For medical use, rely on the current package and your clinician's guidance.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-11-28
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 7 checks.
- **Limitation:** Self-review note: Only GFCO's directory was checked among gluten-free certifiers; several other major certifier registries (e.g. NSF, SCS, GIG, CSA, Coeliac UK) that could independently confirm or deny a certification for Carrington Farms were never attempted.

### Organic

- **Status:** Limited Public Support (`public_corroboration_weak`)
- **Evidence strength:** 19/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “free snack! 100% YUM...0% Guilt! EASY TO ENJOY – Organic, Gluten Free & Vegan crouton alternative. QUINOA BASE”
- **Certifier named:** QAI
- **Safe citation wording:** The product page displays a Organic claim with limited public support. Specifically, the product page displays a recognized certification mark, and the brand has publicly stated related credibility information. Public evidence found is brand-level, company-level, product-level. Batch-specific public evidence was not retrieved in this assessment. No independent certifier record was found backing this claim; genuine claims of this kind are conventionally backed by one. This claim's own wording corresponds to the USDA National Organic Program (US)'s 'organic' labeling category (requires at least 95% organic content; may display the official organic seal).
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-11-28
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 7 checks.

### Vegan

- **Status:** Limited Public Support (`public_corroboration_weak`)
- **Evidence strength:** 8/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “Product tag: "Vegan"”
- **Safe citation wording:** The product page displays a "Vegan" tag, and the available ingredient statement and applicable evidence were reviewed without finding anything that contradicts it; this is not a statement that the product is third-party certified. The brand's public "About Us" page describes its mission and history but contains no information on this product's ingredients or vegan status, and no match for the brand was found on the Vegan Action (vegan.org) page. Batch-specific public evidence was not retrieved in this assessment, and "Vegan" is not defined by US food regulation, though certifier programs define no-animal-ingredient and no-animal-testing criteria.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-11-28
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 6 checks.

### Non-GMO

- **Status:** Limited Public Support (`public_corroboration_weak`)
- **Evidence strength:** 7/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “Product tag: "Non-GMO"”
- **Safe citation wording:** The product page displays a "Non-GMO" tag, and the brand's public materials describe its products as non-GMO and organic, though these statements are brand-level and do not name this specific product. No batch-specific public evidence or independent certifier record tied to this product was retrieved in this assessment. Publicly available information therefore supports only a brand-level non-GMO statement, not a product-specific verification.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-11-25
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 6 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.
