How To Read Bar Codes
Thanks Peter



This may be useful to know when grocery shopping, etc. 
 
bar code
         
Can you differentiate which product is made in Taiwan or in China?
If the first 3 digits of the barcode are 690, 691 or 692, the product is made in China.
If the first 3 digits are 471, the product is made is made in Taiwan .

When you refer to the bar code, remember if the first 3 digits are:
00 - 09 ... Made in USA & Canada         
30 - 37 ... Made in France
40 - 44 ... Made in Germany                       
47 ... Made in Taiwan
49 ... Made in Japan                                       
50 ...  Made in UK
690 - 692 ... Made in China  .

To buy products made in Canada or the USA watch for "0" at the beginning of the bar code. 

Choose wisely!
