Obviously there is great benefit from the growing trend (pardon the pun) towards organic and
vegan dietary disciplines, but not all of us are there yet, and may not be for
some time. No matter what your choices
are when you prowl the aisles of your local supermarket, it is now more
important than ever to be an informed, educated shopper, and that means knowing:
How to read the UPC bar codes on your products
If the product has a five digit code starting with 8, that denotes GMO or GE “food”, which is undoubtedly decidedly low in vibration. Products showing a four digit bar code are conventionally grown, and contain pesticides.
If a product has a five digit code starting with 9, that denotes ORGANIC grown food.
Below is a collection of various bar codes you might be
interested in knowing about, considering not all GMO foods originate in the US. Please keep in mind that this is by no means
the absolute final word, as different countries may use a different type bar
code other than the UPC, such as the EAN-13 system used in Europe
and some other countries. Additionally
in some instances the country code may refer not to the origin of the product,
but rather the country the code is registered in. With that in mind, here are the UPC Bar Codes I've collected for you. The first two or
three digits in the UPC bar code are the country identifier.
00 – 09 USA
& Canada
50 UK
49 Japan
30 – 37 France
40 – 44 Germany
471 Taiwan
690, 691, 692 CHINA
480 Philippines
489 Hong Kong
740-745 Central America
880 South
Korea
885 Thailand
888 Vietnam
899 Indonesia
890 India
930-939 Australia
955 Malaysia
I hope this information is helpful. I remember how in school some kids used to
make little ‘cheat sheets’ just before a big test. That might not be such a bad thing to do at
the market as well. You make out a
grocery list, why not make out another list of UPC codes and such that may be
important to you, cause they sure aren’t going to print them on the handle of
the shopping cart for you!
Until next time, be
good to each other!
The above video (Monsanto; Seeds of Destruction) has been removed because it spoke truth to power, and educated people about what their government is doing in secret. It also disclosed closely guarded secrets concerning Monsanto's production methods & distribution terror tactics. It told the truth, which is always the first casualty of war. so, I guess we are at war.
So, here again, is the video, along with a few others for the gatekeepers to remove.
Thank you so much Chautauqua, this is awesome! I wonder, is there anything left in the "grocery store" to eat?
ReplyDeleteHey Hi Pisces! ~ So glad you found it useful. I was going to do up a proper rant against GMO's before the recent "election" because there was a ballot proposition here in California about labeling GMO's...but...I chose to wait until afterwards mainly because the subject is pretty well covered and I didn't think I had much of value to offer beyond scorn etc. (trying very hard to avoid anger these days, not 'shift worthy' energy). Well the PTB's rigged the vote and the prop was soundly defeated. I thought about making the piece a rant against stupid voters but it's not their fault, they were lied to and propagandized & swindled. Well all this info on bar codes had found it's way to me so the rest is blog history. Yeah, each trip to the grocery store is more and more like navigating a mine field these 'daze'. If I could afford a decent rad detector I would use it at Safeway, if for no other reason than the media attention...I can see the headline now.... :) Thanks for touching base, we'll see ya in the garden.
ReplyDeleteVideo has been removed....somebody got a little too close to the truth
ReplyDeleteWhat did the video contain? I am curious to know what was censored. Thanks...I'll check back. : - )
ReplyDeleteYeah, thats the second time that's happened to me, the other one was an awesome video on "Homegrown Drones" that just got too close for comfort. Cowards!
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed the subject which in turn will protect my family- much thanks original poster!
ReplyDeleteThis is so helpful for someone like me who is finally educating myself on GMO.
ReplyDeleteSo good to hear this was helpful to you. Lamentably, we must constantly update our consumer awareness because the bastards are getting sneakier all the time. thanks!
