Organic baby food not what it seems?

Several British newspapers have recently run articles on the sometimes-misleading labeling practices of organic baby food in the U.K. Most of the interest stems from a report in consumer magazine Which?, pointing out one brand of organic chicken baby food that was only eight percent chicken and mostly potatoes. Apparently EU labeling laws say that if meat is listed as a baby food's main ingredient, the product should be at least 40 percent meat; if a label says something like "chicken and vegetables," the food need only be 10 percent meat. Some baby food products by companies like Heinz and Cow and Gate have less of certain ingredients than they should, according to stories in The Daily Mail, The Telegraph and The Mirror.
