Well, it's more than just that. Most of the time if you buy organic, the company will also not use additives and preservatives as well and those can be what cause you to flare. I know they do me.
I just made homemade yoghurt this weekend and it was fabulous! It was made with organic culture from a company called Yo'gourmet that freeze dries the cultures. They have two options for preparation. The first is with milk which makes regular yoghurt (and I'm sure you could use soy, rice milk, almond, etc also) and the second is called Creme Bulgare which is made with cream and is just scrumptious!!! It's rich and slightly sweet, not sour at all! I put just a touch of honey over it and I could eat this stuff all day! It didn't make me flare at all and I had to pull my mom off of it. LOL! I almost didn't get it back when I gave her a taste.

I basically have decided to cook/bake everything from scratch from here on out since everything else is suspect and could cause flares and costs so much to purchase anyway. My family has basically gone vegan anyhow and it's becoming more and more clear that eating as close to the way nature made it is the best way to stay flare free.
