The guides are based primarily on information acquired through exchanges with industry participants. Cornucopia staff members contacted companies that produce and market meat alternatives and nutrition bars, to ask them about their production practices. Every company listed was given the opportunity to share the details of their production processes with Cornucopia researchers (at a minimum, every company received a certified letter). Products are listed as containing "Hexane-Extracted Soy Protein" only when all three criteria are met:

The product is not certified organic. Beware products with the claim "made with organic ingredients" are not certified organic, and do not display the “USDA Organic” seal. These may contain hexane-extracted protein ingredients.
The product contains soy protein ingredients that are nearly universally processed with hexane, such as soy protein isolate and soy protein concentrate.
The product's manufacturer or marketer did not respond to our inquiries regarding the use of solvents such as hexane in their processing and make no statements or representations on their packaging or website about going to the expense of procuring organic or conventional non-hexane-extracted soy protein ingredients.
