Key: Organic indgredients committment

Organic (according only to USDA standards). For meat, i extrapolate to mean no hormones, no cages, no things fed to the animals that they were never meant to eat, and no genetic modification. Specific considerations:
  • Does the restaurant utilize organic ingredients? Does it appear that more than 75% of the ingredients used are organic?
  • Does the restaurant have an agreement with an organic farm, butcher or product line? Are these organic arrangements for local food?
  • If there is meat served at the establishment, is it possible to find out where the meat came from, how it was raised, or what it was fed? Is there information on dairy products served at the establishment, and was it similarly from a healthy animal?
