# 88 Acres Cinnamon Maple Seed + Oat Bars (9 Bars) — 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.

## Claims checked

### Gluten-Free

- **Status:** Preliminary — a person is still reviewing this (`preliminary`)
- **Claim observed on the page:** “Made in our dedicated top 9 allergen-free bakery. Certified gluten-free, vegan, non-GMO and kosher. (per serving”
- **Certifier named:** GFCO
- **Safe citation wording:** Preliminary — awaiting TilliT review: 88 Acres publicly presents this product as gluten-free, and public evidence includes a product page displaying a recognized gluten-free certification mark and brand help articles stating that all products are certified gluten-free and made in a dedicated top 9 allergen-free bakery; however, the certifier listing found was brand-level rather than specific to this product, and no batch-specific public evidence was retrieved. Under FDA's gluten-free labeling rule (21 CFR 101.91), the claim is voluntary and does not require third-party certification or a specific test method, though the product must meet the legal definition of under 20 ppm gluten. TilliT did not independently verify this claim, and for medical use, rely on the current package and your clinician's guidance.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-11-28
- **Limitation:** Generic certifier-directory search skipped: a structured GFCO match already resolved this badge with higher confidence than a text-directory probe could add.
- **Limitation:** The GFCO product list names "Cinnamon Maple Seed Bars, 1 ct", which is the product family, not specifically "Cinnamon Maple Seed + Oat Bars (9 Bars)"; no exact-item upgrade was made.
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 7 checks.

### Allergen-Free

- **Status:** Preliminary — a person is still reviewing this (`preliminary`)
- **Claim observed on the page:** “0 0 artificial ingredients Top 9 Top 9 allergen free Low Low FODMAP friendly Antioxidants in every serving”
- **Safe citation wording:** Preliminary — awaiting TilliT review: The product page displays a Allergen-Free 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. Note: the ingredient list includes oat, which may warrant further verification for a Allergen-Free claim. This claim can legally be self-declared in the US, with no required independent testing. This claim is scoped to US allergen regulation — this covers the US 9 only; it does not address celery, mustard, lupin, molluscs or sulfites, which the EU and FSANZ separately regulate.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-11-29
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 8 checks.

### Organic

- **Status:** Limited Public Support (`public_corroboration_weak`)
- **Evidence strength:** 50/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “and kosher, and our seed butters are also certified organic. Shipping & returns Where does 88 Acres ship to? 88”
- **Certifier named:** Baystate Organic Certifiers (via USDA Organic Integrity Database)
- **Safe citation wording:** The product page displays an organic claim and a recognized certification mark, and a public registry lists 88 Acres Foods Inc as certified at the company level. Public evidence retrieved is brand-level, company-level, and ingredient-level, and does not confirm organic certification for this specific product. Batch-specific public evidence was not retrieved in this assessment.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-12-05
- **Limitation:** Generic certifier-directory search skipped: a structured Baystate Organic Certifiers (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.

### Vegan

- **Status:** Certification Match Found (`public_certification_match_found`)
- **Evidence strength:** 79/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “and nutrient-rich seeds. Top 9 allergen-free and plant-based, it’s a wholesome, feel-good snack perfect for breakfast”
- **Certifier named:** Vegan Action
- **Safe citation wording:** The product page uses the term "plant-based" rather than an explicit "Vegan" claim, and a public certification catalog from Vegan Action lists at least one 88 Acres product at brand level. The brand's help article states its products are certified vegan, but it does not name the Cinnamon Maple Seed + Oat Bars specifically, and no product-level or batch-level certification document for this item was retrieved. This public evidence supports a brand-level certification signal only and does not confirm the exact package or lot.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-12-29
- **Limitation:** Generic certifier-directory search skipped: a structured Vegan Action 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: 6 checks.

### Non-GMO

- **Status:** Limited Public Support (`public_corroboration_weak`)
- **Evidence strength:** 14/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “Certified gluten-free, vegan, non-GMO and kosher. (per serving) Serving”
- **Safe citation wording:** The product page displays a Non-GMO claim with limited public support. Specifically, 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. Separately, the ingredient list includes flax, oat, rice, pumpkin — the Non-GMO Project's own Monitored-Risk list (a real but lower signal than its High-Risk list, per the Project's own standard), included here for shoppers who want it, not as a contradiction of this claim. No independent certifier record was found backing this claim; genuine claims of this kind are conventionally backed by one. Non-GMO is accurate for this product, but none of its listed ingredients (e.g. corn, soy, canola, sugar beet, alfalfa, papaya, eggplant, pineapple, zucchini, potato, or animal-derived inputs such as meat, dairy, or egg) are among the crop types or inputs with a commercially available genetically modified/GMO-fed counterpart (TilliT uses the US list, which approves more such crops than most markets) — so this claim may not be a meaningful distinction for this specific product.

- **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.
