Sabina concludes that the label on a packet of cookies is not mistaken to claim that the cookies use only natural ingredients, despite containing chemically synthesized acids. This is because the acids are also found naturally in sugarcane.

Sabina assumes that if a substance can occur naturally, then it should be considered “natural” even in instances where that same substance has been chemically synthesized.

The argument is only about the cookies in the package with the specific label in question. The contents of any subsequent cookies don't matter to us.

The argument is about whether the acids in question can be considered "natural," so whether other chemicals are included in the cookies isn't relevant.

Regardless of when the label was printed, the argument is about whether the label is true as it relates to these particular cookies. Prior manufacturing changes are irrelevant.

So, are these other foods making a false claim about containing only natural ingredients? This doesn't tell us, so we can't draw a useful analogy to the cookies.

In other words, since the acids occur in sugarcane, they’re natural. This supports Sabina's claim that the cookies were made with all-natural ingredients.
