# Once Upon a Farm Pouch Apple Cinnamon Applesauce — 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.

Apple Cinnamon Applesauce by Once Upon a Farm Pouch — public trust assessment of 3 observed badge claim(s): Organic: Limited Public Support; Non-GMO: Limited Public Support; Allergen-Free: Limited Public Support.

## Claims checked

### Allergen-Free

- **Status:** Preliminary — a person is still reviewing this (`preliminary`)
- **Claim observed on the page:** “Claims free of: dairy free”
- **Safe citation wording:** Preliminary — awaiting TilliT review: Claim supported. This kind of Allergen-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 Allergen-Free. Specifically, the brand has publicly stated related credibility information. Batch-specific public evidence was not retrieved in this assessment. This claim can legally be self-declared in the US, with no required independent testing.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-11-26
- **Limitation:** This is a claim about specific allergens (dairy-free), not a blanket allergen-free claim — it says nothing about allergens it does not name.
- **Limitation:** The Orthodox Union's own kosher product records classify 'Applesauce Apple Cinnamon' as Dairy (containing dairy ingredients under Jewish dietary law) — worth checking against this product's own dairy-free/allergen-free claim, not proof that the claim is false on its own (kosher classification and allergen labeling are governed by different rules and can genuinely diverge in edge cases).
- **Limitation:** The manufacturer's own labelling carries a cross-contact / shared-facility disclosure for milk / dairy ("*Organic Made On Shared Equipment That Also Processes Milk.") — a real caveat worth checking against the allergen-free claim, not proof the claim is false: an ingredient-level "milk / dairy-free" claim and a shared-facility disclosure can both be true. Facility segregation is part of what allergen-free certification checks.
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.

### Organic

- **Status:** Limited Public Support (`public_corroboration_weak`)
- **Evidence strength:** 51/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “Certified No Added Sugar No Artificial Ingredients Two organic ingredients. That’s it. Our Applesauce squeeze pouches”
- **Certifier named:** CCOF Certification Services, LLC (via USDA Organic Integrity Database)
- **Safe citation wording:** The product page displays an organic claim and a recognized certification mark, and a certifier lists the brand as certified, though that listing is brand-level and not confirmed for this specific product. A USDA registry also lists the company behind the claim as certified, which is company-level evidence. Batch-specific public evidence was not retrieved in this assessment.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-11-29
- **Limitation:** Generic certifier-directory search skipped: a structured CCOF Certification Services, LLC (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.

### Non-GMO

- **Status:** Limited Public Support (`public_corroboration_weak`)
- **Evidence strength:** 21/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “time, or on the go. USDA Organic and Non-GMO Project Verified ‡Not A Low Calorie Food. Apple*,”
- **Safe citation wording:** The product page displays a Non-GMO 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 product page's text mentions apple (not found in a structured ingredient list), which may warrant further verification for a Non-GMO 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.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-11-24
- **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.
