# Alter Eco Foods Quinoa Crunch — 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)

Quinoa Crunch by Alter Eco Foods — public trust assessment of 3 observed badge claim(s): Organic: Certification Match Found; Vegan: Limited Public Support; Fair Trade: Limited Public Support. These statuses reflect publicly available evidence only, not a review of the seller's own certificates or documents.

## Claims checked

### Organic

- **Status:** Certification Match Found (`public_certification_match_found`)
- **Evidence strength:** 78/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “Crunch Deep Dark Quinoa Crunch Chocolate Bar| Vegan, Organic, & Fair Trade | Alter Eco – Alter Eco Foods”
- **Certifier named:** Quality Assurance International (via USDA Organic Integrity Database)
- **Safe citation wording:** The product page displays an organic claim, and the USDA Organic Integrity Database lists Alter Eco Foods, LLC as certified by Quality Assurance International, with a product listing for "Chocolate - Quinoa Crunch 60%" that matches the assessed product name. This public evidence is brand- and product-level and does not cover the specific batch or package in hand, which would require the seller's own certificates or documents. TilliT has not verified this claim.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-12-12
- **Limitation:** Generic certifier-directory search skipped: a structured Quality Assurance International (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:** Limited Public Support (`public_corroboration_weak`)
- **Evidence strength:** 12/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “Quinoa Crunch Deep Dark Quinoa Crunch Chocolate Bar| Vegan, Organic, & Fair Trade | Alter Eco – Alter”
- **Safe citation wording:** The product page displays a vegan claim, and the brand's public About page describes its mission and certifications (B Corp, Fair Trade) without addressing this specific product's vegan status; no match for Alter Eco Foods was found on the public Vegan Action page, and batch-specific public evidence was not retrieved. The ingredient statement was reviewed and nothing contradicting the claim was found, though the ingredient list includes sugar, which may warrant further verification. This reflects only the public evidence retrieved and is not a statement that the product is third-party vegan certified.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-11-20
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 6 checks.

### Fair Trade

- **Status:** Limited Public Support (`public_corroboration_weak`)
- **Evidence strength:** 42/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “Quinoa Crunch Chocolate Bar| Vegan, Organic, & Fair Trade | Alter Eco – Alter Eco Foods Skip to content”
- **Certifier named:** Fair for Life (Ecocert)
- **Safe citation wording:** The product page displays a Fair Trade claim, and a certifier directory lists the brand Alter Eco Foods as a certified partner, though this listing is company-level and not confirmed for this specific product. Public evidence found is brand-level and company-level, and batch-specific public evidence was not retrieved in this assessment. TilliT has not verified this claim.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-11-20
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 7 checks.
- **Limitation:** Generic certifier-directory search skipped: a structured Fair for Life (Ecocert) match already resolved this badge with higher confidence than a text-directory probe could add.

## 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.
