Does USDA Organic food mean all natural?
Is one of the qualifications for a USDA organic seal mean that all the ingredients are "all natural"?
Answers:
All Natural is not regulated by the government, so it could very well have pesticides used, and synthetic fertilizers. In fact it could be an all around conventional product.
USDA organic, means that the company is inspected once a year, to make sure that they arent using and
GMO's ( genetically modified organisms - which if you do not know is pretty much man made organisms)
Radiation
synthetic fertilizers
sewage fertilizers
and of course
synthetic pesticides
So if it is not USDA certified organic, I would probably stay clear from it.

yes
no. in 2005 congress passed a measure to make it easier to put Synthetic Additives into organic food. In other words thats bad stuff.
