In the UK, you'd know because the Organic label is so strictly
regulated , accredited and inspected that cheats have no hope of getting
away with it.

Legitimate local rivals would dob them in right away. I've seen this in
action; a farm shop selling meat it falsely advertised was both Organic
and raised on the farm lasted less than 24 hours before their trading
operation was reported, inspected, forcibly shut down on grounds of health
safety and the operators subsequently prosecuted.

Anyone who has ever tasted eggs produced on true free range pasture by
organically managed hens will never mistake them for lesser-quality eggs.
