Ever wondered how you can tell where your packaged food items are made

Ever wondered how you can tell where your packaged food items are made??? Here is a handy tip to easily identify where your food came from. You may now refer to the barcode -
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

    lots of my stuff starts with 78. The one that says 48 says it was manufactured by a co in CA...

  2. Thanks for sharing! I had no idea that the bar codes would explain where it is made.
