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 label at the grocery store and especially at 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 its origin.
How to read The Beginning of Bar Codes .... interesting!
This may be useful to know when grocery shopping, if it's a concern to you.
GREAT WAY TO "BUY USA & CANADA" AND NOT FROM CHINA!!

The whole world is concerned about 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 & CANADA
30 - 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! Pass this on to everybody on your E-Mail Contact List!!

I think this stuff is good to know.

I dont have kids to buy for anymore, but every year there is a problem with lead or some other toxin being put into the toys. Lets face it, the stuff is cheap because its inferior.

This is very good information to know..I have one question.
When you look at the bar code there is 1 number on the left then there is 2 sets of 5 digits..Do you use that 1st number to the left?

Here is information on our foods..

Look at the code. All foods have a PLU or UPC code on them in the supermarket. Vegetables are no different. If the vegetable is sold individually, look for the sticker on the vegetable itself. If the five digit number starts with an "8", it is genetically engineered.

smilethankyou

That is the kind of stuff we should all be more aware of. I grow alot of the veggies I eat, but they dont last all year. I am trying to expand the garden so that I can rely on my own produce for the most part.

I like to eat fresh fruits and veggies and its nice to know I am not getting some freakazoid tomato

Well its not just about food. Its about manufacturing and keeping the jobs that are here from moving offshore.

We used to be a much more self sufficient country and we should be again. I dont like another country and the people who run them having the power to limit or eliminate what I want to purchase. I would prefer our country made the products I buy.

Sorry, but not true - and urban legend. Check it out on snopes:

Or check it out yourself by checking the codes on products in your kitchen are labeled with country of origin.

I am not good at that, but it is the barcode on the product itself, not the one on the price tag from the store.

Yes, it is true. The snopes you are talking about is on the store barcode. The product packaging is required to have it, most also say made in (fill in the blank) but some say distributer addys instead of saying made in ___________

This is not the only the fault of the Chinese....
 Quoting: dan 1544454


You are correct, this is more to BUY American when possible. Its not a china bashing, except for the fact that they do make inferior products with toxins or defective parts to keep prices low. We as consumers have the right to know IF we choose to do something about it.

Just today I picked up some Revlon makeup and looked, it was made in china, than I picked up Loreal and it was made in the USA, so it can be done, if someone cares to do it.

I think we should support our country and those who do still produce products here. Keep as many jobs that are still here as we can. I have nothing against the chinese.
