Subject: HOW TO READ BAR CODES...(very good to 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---CAREFULLY!=20



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 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 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.=20

471 is Made in Taiwan .=20

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!
