Earth's Best Organic

Why We Like It

Earth's Best Organic delivers on its core promise: a USDA certified organic formula that parents can find at virtually any major retailer at a price that does not break the family budget. While it lacks the advanced prebiotic and probiotic features of premium imports, its clean organic certification and unmatched retail accessibility make it the best entry point into organic feeding.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• USDA certified organic at the lowest price per ounce of any organic formula in wide U.S. retail distribution
• Available at Whole Foods, Target, Walmart, and major online retailers for convenient purchasing
• DHA and ARA added from algae and fungal sources with no fish oil, producing less odor and taste aversion

Cons

• Ingredient list includes organic brown rice syrup as a carbohydrate source, which some nutritionists flag as less ideal than lactose
• Does not include prebiotics or probiotics found in premium competitors like HiPP or Bobbie

Score Breakdown

We ranked 5 infant formulas. Criteria: nutritional profile on top of FDA requirements (not instead of them); carbohydrate and fat sources; reported digestibility and when a pediatrician — not a ranking page — should steer you to a specialty formula; U.S. retail or reputable-channel availability; and cost per prepared ounce rather than per can. Store-brand equivalence follows AAP guidance. We did not invent extra formulas or a lab test set we do not have.
