Barcodes On Foods

Bar Codes On Foods
The foods prepared in China and marketed world wide have made us aware of the lack of an acceptable standard of hygiene, safety, and ethics. Do you know how to detect which food products we should question before purchase? Some countries have a higher standard of food safety and are known to have the least contaminated recall record. Foods processed in China, Thailand, and Vietnam have no food safety inspection.
Make a copy of these bar codes to keep with you when you shop.
