D. 80

Answer 1

Food products labeled "Made with Organic Ingredients" must have at least 70% of their ingredients meet organic criteria.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer is C. 70.

According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), a food product can be labeled "Made with Organic Ingredients" if at least 70% of the finished product's ingredients meet organic criteria.

This means that 70% of the ingredients must be produced without the use of synthetic pesticides, chemical fertilizers, or genetically modified seeds. The remaining 30% of the ingredients may be non-organic, but they cannot be produced using genetically modified organisms (GMOs).
