Is citric acid inorganic or organic?
From a chemical perspective? It's an organic compound, it contains carbon. Was it organically produced, that is, made without pesticides? Maybe. Probably not if the label doesn't say. --- I am not sure of understanding the question : If organic refers to 'organically grown' or 'certified organic farming', etc : May be citric acid can be extracted from some organically grown fruits in a way that would match an organic certification standard, and therefore qualify for an 'organic' labelling. Nevertheless, I would be quite puzzled at reading this on some food packaging. An other way of understanding the question is that there can be 'organic' sources for citric acid (ex. some fruits) by contrast with 'non organic' sources of citric acid (chemical synthesis). According to USDA National Organic Program regulation 205.605, nonagricultural citric acid may be used as an ingredient in processed products labeled as "organic" or "made with organic citric acid" only if it is produced by microbial fermentation of carbohydrate substances.
