Are these grammatically correct?

Hello,

I hope you are all ok. I would like to know if the following constructions are correct and if both forms are acceptable. Thank you.

A. Our products are 100% natural with responsibly-obtained ingredients from animals and plants / with ingredients that are responsibly obtained from animals and plants.

B. Sir, I understand you can't buy it now, but what would have to / might have to happen for you to buy our product now?

Nature04 Our products are 100% natural with responsibly-obtained ingredients from animals and plants / with ingredients that are responsibly obtained from animals and plants. Adverbs in "-ly" do not take that hyphen. If you must keep that wording, you need a comma before "with".

  • Nature04 Our products are 100% natural with responsibly-obtained ingredients from animals and plants / with ingredients that are responsibly obtained from animals and plants.
  • Adverbs in "-ly" do not take that hyphen.
  • If you must keep that wording, you need a comma before "with".
  • Either order is OK if you don't mind sounding like you're hiding something.
  • But I am immune to advertising, so take that into account.
