Tips to all my frenz...Always Keep

HOW TO READ BAR CODES...(everyone
must know)
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---CAREFULL Y!
With all the food and pet products
now coming from China, it is best to
make sure you read label at the
supermarket and especially when
buying food products. Many products
no longer show where they were
made, only give where the distributor
is located. The whole world is
concerned about China-made"black-
hearted goods".
Can you differentiate which one is
madein Taiwan or China ? The world
is also concerned about GMO
(Genetically Modified Organism) foods;
steroid fed animals (ex: 45 days old
broiler chicken).
It is important to read the bar code to
track its origin. How to read Bar Codes...interesting !
If the first 3 digits of the bar code are
690, 691 or 692, theproduct is MADE IN
CHINA. 471is Made in Taiwan .
If the first 3 digits of the barcode are
00-09 then it's made or sourced in
USA
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:
890......MADE IN INDIA
690, 691, 692 ... then it is
MADE IN CHINA
00 - 09 ... USA and CANADA
30 - 37 ... FRANCE
40 - 44 ... GERMANY
471 ........ Taiwan
49 .......... JAPAN
50 .......... UK
