Organic means anything that contains carbon - hydrogen bonds.

chemicals that contain covalently bound carbon and hydrogen atoms and are involved in metabolic reactions

In relation to food, organic means 100% natural. No chemical fertilizers (only manure and compost ) and no special additives (ie no pesticides for plants, growth hormones or antibiotics for livestock) were used at all.

This must hold true from the beginning to end--from seed to silo, from egg to slaughterhouse, and also the way it has been made into into another product.
