Is it made in the U.S.A.?


This may be useful to know when grocery shopping, if it's a concern to you. With current problems with products from China...including dog/cat food, many people are 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. 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, businessmen know that consumers do not prefer products "MADE IN CHINA ", so they don't always show from which country it is made/grown. 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


47 ... Taiwan


49 … JAPAN


50 … UK

BUY USA by watching for "0" at the beginning of the number. We need every boost we can get!
