Not unlike the vocabulary that the food industry uses ...
* "fresh" means it's always been refrigerated. E.g., for orange juice, it's always been in a cold tank, perhaps for a year.
* "100%" means there aren't any other ingredients. E.g., for orange juice, after a year in a tank taste has deteriorated so extract from orange skin is added in.
* "organic" means the produce has been certified by a third-party. What the certification involves is far less clear, and includes almost always the use of pesticides that aren't "synthetic", like, say, extracted from toxic plants, which aren't necessarily good for you.
... and so on.
Chantel Organics coconut cream:
Price per 400ml can: $4.50
90% coconut, 10% water.
Ceres Organic coconut cream:
Price per 400ml can: $4.60
55% coconut, $45% water.
The packaging gives no indication that they aren't the same unless you scrutinise the ingredients list. What's up with that?
Yes, I'm a bit obsessed with buying coconut cream : P
