# Partake Foods Crunchy Chocolate Chip — 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)

Crunchy Chocolate Chip by Partake Foods — public trust assessment of 4 observed badge claim(s): Vegan: Certification Match Found; Non-GMO: Certification Match Found; Gluten-Free: Certification Match Found; Allergen-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:** Certification Match Found (`public_certification_match_found`)
- **Evidence strength:** 78/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “from the box (we won't judge). As always, they’re gluten-free, vegan, non-GMO, and free of the top 9 allergens—so”
- **Certifier named:** GFCO
- **Safe citation wording:** The product page states the item is gluten-free, and the GFCO directory lists "22ct Crunchy Chocolate Chip Minis" as a certified product, an exact name match to this product. A Partake help article also states its treats are certified gluten-free and that ingredients and every production lot are tested, though that article does not name this specific product. Public evidence found is brand-level, company-level, and product-level; no batch-level certificate or document for the exact package or lot was retrieved, and TilliT has not verified this claim.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-12-09
- **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:** 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:** “vegan, non-GMO, and free of the top 9 allergens”
- **Safe citation wording:** The product page states the item is free of the top 9 allergens, and two independent organisations published evidence relevant to this claim, including a brand help article describing a facility free from the top 9 allergens and an Orthodox Union record classifying this exact product as Pareve. Batch-specific public evidence was not retrieved, and the ingredient list includes oat, which may warrant further verification for an allergen-free claim. This claim is scoped to US allergen regulation covering the US 9 only and does not address celery, mustard, lupin, molluscs or sulfites.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-11-12
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 8 checks.

### Vegan

- **Status:** Certification Match Found (`public_certification_match_found`)
- **Evidence strength:** 79/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “(we won't judge). As always, they’re gluten-free, vegan, non-GMO, and free of the top 9 allergens—so you can”
- **Certifier named:** Vegan Action
- **Safe citation wording:** The product page displays a Vegan claim and a public certification record from Vegan Action appears to match this product or product family. This supports a strong public certification signal, but does not confirm this specific batch, which would require a review of the seller's own certificates or documents. Specifically, a certifier's records list this exact product as certified, and 1 independent organisation published evidence relevant to this claim. Public evidence found is brand-level, company-level, product-level. This claim is backed by a certifier that evaluates products against a published standard — using documentation, supply-chain traceability, and testing of high-risk inputs where the standard requires it. That is not the same as testing every finished product, and this public evidence does not cover the exact package or lot in your hand. Vegan Action's standard: Explicitly allows trace cross-contamination where shared-equipment cleaning steps are followed, to avoid excluding otherwise animal-free products.
- **Re-verification due:** 2027-01-08
- **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:** Certification Match Found (`public_certification_match_found`)
- **Evidence strength:** 78/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “As always, they’re gluten-free, vegan, non-GMO, and free of the top 9 allergens—so you can join in”
- **Certifier named:** Non-GMO Project
- **Safe citation wording:** The product page displays a Non-GMO claim and a public certification record from Non-GMO Project appears to match this product or product family. This supports a strong public certification signal, but does not confirm this specific batch, which would require a review of the seller's own certificates or documents. Specifically, a certifier's records list this exact product as certified, and 1 independent organisation published evidence relevant to this claim. Public evidence found is brand-level, company-level, product-level. This claim is backed by a certifier that evaluates products against a published standard — using documentation, supply-chain traceability, and testing of high-risk inputs where the standard requires it. That is not the same as testing every finished product, and this public evidence does not cover the exact package or lot in your hand. Non-GMO Project's standard: The Non-GMO Project sets four different Action Thresholds, not one: 0.9% for goods for human or pet use that are ingested or topically applied (including OTC drugs and homeopathic remedies); 0.25% for seed and vegetative propagation materials; 5% for livestock, poultry, bee, and seafood feed and supplements (may be a quarterly average); and 1.5% for goods that are not ingested or topically applied (e.g. packaging, cleaning supplies, textiles). Requires ongoing lot-level testing of Testable High-Risk major inputs — not a self-declared claim — with documented alternative compliance pathways (affidavits for non-testable inputs, country-of-origin reductions, periodic averaging). Requires annual renewal evaluation of every Verified Product; onsite inspection is required annually where Parallel Processing of the same major High-Risk input occurs, and may be required at the technical administrator's discretion otherwise. 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 in the US — so this claim may not be a meaningful distinction for this specific product.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-11-28
- **Limitation:** Generic certifier-directory search skipped: a structured Non-GMO Project 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.

## 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.
