Cryovac PD961 with the thickness is 31.25 μm (7400–8500 O2 and 21000–24000 CO2 mL m−2 day−1 atm−1), Polypropylene with the thickness is 25μm (1300–6400 O2 and 7700–21000 CO2 mL m−2 day−1 atm−1), LDPE with the thickness is 25 μm (3900-13000 CO2 mL m−2 day−1 atm−1), and PVC cling film with the thickness is 12μm (63555 O2 and 127733 CO2 mL m−2 day-1 atm−1) to serve as control. Ten replications were maintained in each treatment. All samples were sealed and stored at 8 °C for 9 days i.e., the day of sensory deterioration in best package.

On December 5, 2012, Daisy Luther, a journalist from Northern California wrote a blog entry on the conspiracy surrounding “certified organic” labels that is claimed by some companies and retailers. She brings up the question of whether these labels being stamped on food can really be verified or are they just a way to empty out the wallets of consumers.
