Post Bar Codes
Barcodes FYI (No, not the bars you drink at)

Good Information!!

Good to know because of the problems with food processed in China.


The whole world is scared of China made 'black hearted goods'.
Can you differentiate which one is made in the USA, Philippines,
Taiwan or China? For your Information...the first 3 digits of the
barcode is the country code wherein the product was made.


Sample: all barcodes that start with 690,691,692
until 695 are all MADE IN CHINA. (sometime bad foods)

471 is Made in Taiwan (bad foods)

This is our human 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 - 695 then it is Made in China.

00 ~ 13 USA & CANADA

300 ~ 379 FRANCE

400 ~ 440 GERMANY

490 ~ 499 JAPAN

500 ~ 509 UK

570 ~ 579 Denmark

640 ~ 649 Finland

760 ~ 769 Switzerland and Liechtenstein

471 ~ Taiwan

628 ~ Saudi Arabia

629 ~ United Arab Emirates

690 - 695 ~ China

740 - 745 ~ Central America

All 480 Codes are made in the Philippines.

So roughly it's the higher the number, the more likely you are to be poisoned.
