# Hu Almond Butter + Almond CrunchAlmond Butter + Almond Crunch / 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)

Almond Butter + Almond CrunchAlmond Butter + Almond Crunch / 6 Pack by Hu — public trust assessment of 5 observed badge claim(s): Organic: Limited Public Support; Vegan: Conflicting Public Evidence; Non-GMO: Limited Public Support; Gluten-Free: 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

### Gluten-Free

- **Status:** Limited Public Support (`public_corroboration_weak`)
- **Evidence strength:** 15/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “Product tag: "certification-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. 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:** 2026-11-22
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 7 checks.
- **Limitation:** Self-review note: No check of the USDA Gluten Free certification body's own registry was attempted, even though the brand page explicitly displays a USDA Gluten Free badge — verifying that named certifier's listing is the most direct public path to a stronger match.

### Organic

- **Status:** Limited Public Support (`public_corroboration_weak`)
- **Evidence strength:** 18/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “Product tag: "certification-Organic"”
- **Safe citation wording:** The product page displays a Organic claim with limited public support. Specifically, the product page displays a recognized certification mark. 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:** 2026-11-22
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 7 checks.
- **Limitation:** Self-review note: The bundle checked Australian Organic and CCOF directories but never checked the USDA Organic Integrity Database (the actual certifier registry for the named USDA Organic seal), which is the most direct public path to confirm Hu's certification.

### Vegan

- **Status:** Conflict detected — review pending (`preliminary`)
- **Claim observed on the page:** “x icon meaning no USDA none GMO Non GMO certified vegan Kosher 256x256 78c2bf11 72fa 4012 ad16 2d09d4df0294”
- **Safe citation wording:** Preliminary — awaiting TilliT review: Public sources conflict about this product's Vegan claim. This is based on the product's own declared ingredient list ("milk"). The claim should not be relied upon without further review. Specifically, the product page displays a recognized certification mark, and public sources conflict about this claim, so it should not be relied on without further review. The ingredient list itself names milk, which conflicts with the Vegan claim. This claim can legally be self-declared in the US, with no required independent testing.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-11-18
- **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: "certification-Non GMO"”
- **Safe citation wording:** The product page displays a "certification-Non GMO" tag, and the brand's help/about page shows Non-GMO Verified certification logos at the brand level, but no product-specific or batch-specific public evidence was retrieved in this assessment. The ingredient list includes milk, which may warrant further verification for a Non-GMO claim, and no independent certifier record was found backing this specific claim. This wording describes only what public sources show and does not represent verification by TilliT.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-11-22
- **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:** 9/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “is used for general nutrition advice. Organic Fair Trade Gluten Free Milk Chocolate Bars Like the chocolate”
- **Safe citation wording:** The product page displays a Fair Trade claim with limited public support. 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 cocoa, sugar, which may warrant further verification for a Fair Trade claim. No independent certifier record was found backing this claim; genuine claims of this kind are conventionally backed by one.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-11-22
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 7 checks.
- **Limitation:** Self-review note: The bundle notes certifier directories 'could not be searched non-interactively' but never attempted the specific Fairtrade certifier's own site (Fairtrade America or FLOCERT), which is the only realistic path to a stronger match for a Fairtrade claim.

## 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.
