What you need to know about bar codes

This may be useful to know when grocery shopping, if it’s a concern to you.

example of a bar code

Can you differentiate which one is made in Taiwan or China ?

If the first 3 digits of the bar code 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 bar code, remember if the first 3 digits are:

690-692 … then it is MADE IN CHINA .
00 – 09 … USA & CANADA
30 – 37 … FRANCE
40 – 44 … GERMANY
47 … 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! God I love our country.

A friend shared this information with me and I love it, So I link it. Thanks to the original writer.
