How Much of Your Food Labeled as Organic Is Actually Organic?

The following article speaks some definite truths, however, I'm skeptical about some of what the article says.

It is true that one needs to be VERY careful when buying processed foods with an "organic" label.  Not everything in organic crackers, for example, has to be organic.  There could be GMOs and MSGs in it.  As long as 95% of the food or drink is organic, it can have the "USDA Organic" label.

Fresh certified organic produce, on the other hand, I'm not sure can be conventionally grown as the article states.  This is not to declare the contents of the article untrue.  I'm simply expressing skepticism about one part of the article and I'm on the lookout for more information in case what it says IS in fact true.

If you, the reader, has further information on this topic it is very welcome!  I'm grateful for any and all information.
