Subject: How to Read Bar Codes on Food . . .
This is very interesting & good to know as a safeguard.
ALWAYS READ THE LABELS ON THE FOODS YOU BUY--NO MATTER WHAT THE
FRONT OF THE BOX OR PACKAGE SAYS, TURN IT OVER AND READ THE
BACK---CAREFULLY!
With all the food and pet products now coming from China , it is
best to make sure you read labels at the grocery store and
especially Walmart when buying food products.
Many products no longer show where they were made, only give where
the distributor is located. It is important to read the bar code to
track it's origin.
How to read Bar Codes .... Interesting!
This will be useful to know when grocery shopping.
GREAT WAY TO BUY USA & CANADA AND NOT FROM CHINA!!
The whole world is afraid of China-made "Black-hearted goods".
Can you differentiate which one is made in Taiwan or China?
If the first 3 digits of the barcode are 690, 691 or 692, the
product is MADE IN CHINA. 471 is Made in Taiwan.
This is our right to know, but the government and related
departments never educate the public; therefore, we have to RESCUE
ourselves.
Nowadays, Chinese businessmen know that consumers do not prefer
products "Made in China", so they don't show from which country it is made.
However, you may now refer to the barcode. Remember, if the first
3 digits are:690-692 . .. . Then it is MADE IN CHINA
00 - 09 . .. . USA or CANADA30 - 37 . .. . FRANCE
40 - 44 . .. . GERMANY
471 . . . Taiwan
49 . .. . JAPAN
50 . .. . UK
BUY USA & CANADIAN MADE by watching for "0" at the beginning of the number.
We need every boost we can get for our economy, as well as
possibly not getting some things we don't want to get from them.
