During our conversation with John Cannarella on November 14, 2011, we advised him that due to timing constraints on our internal finance and legal personnel caused in part by the Form 10-Q filed on November 9th, our annual meeting of stockholders on November 17, 2011 and the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday, we would like to request an extension of time to provide a response. Accordingly, we respectfully request an extension until Friday, December 9, 2011 to file our response to the Staff Comment Letter. Thank you for your consideration of our request for an extension. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call me at (631) 730-2205. Very truly yours, The Hain Celestial Group, Inc. /s/ Ira J Lamel Ira J.
