>> forwarding msg --- THE AUSTRALIAN (healthy foods) BARCODE PREFIX IS 93 AUSTRALIANS... Behind the Barcodes -- Do check IT! This is worth knowing, so please take the time to read this, especially the 2nd bit. (SCROLL DOWN) Check this out at the Freezer before purchasing! A while ago, A Current Affair did a report on frozen vegetables imported from New Zealand. It turns out that if it is a Coles or Woolies home brand, there is a good chance that the product has come from China. Products made by McCain’s, Birdseye, and other supposedly reputable companies from New Zealand, are now purchasing vegie products from China, and selling that product under their name. Basically, check where it is produced by the comments on the back of the pack, and if it says produced from New Zealand and Imported product, it has Chinese vegies in it, so put it back on the shelf. Id even go as far as to say, even if it has product of New Zealand on it, Id be suspicious about where those vegies in that pack came from. I would play it safe, unless it has been grown and packed in Australia, stay away from it unless you don’t mind digesting poisons. Learn from BARCODES: remember....... the Australian barcode prefix is 93!!!! If you love Australian produce and the thought of keeping jobs here, AND you like to eat healthy foods and buy quality products, please read on. Please also note, the Australian barcode prefix is 93. DANGEROUS IMPORTED FOODS There are NO food inspection regulations of foods grown or processed in China, Vietnam, Hong Kong or Thailand. Other world countries are scared of China making black hearted goods’, but can you differentiate which one is made in Australia, the USA, The Philippines, Taiwan or China? For your information, the first 3 digits of the barcode is the country code where the product was made. Example: all barcodes that start with 690, 691, through to 699, are all MADE IN CHINA. --- 471 is Made in Taiwan. It is our right to know, but our government and the related departments never educate the public, therefore we have to RESCUE OURSELVES. Nowadays, Chinese businessmen know that consumers do not prefer products Made in China, so they dont show from which country it is made. However, you can now refer to the barcode. Remember that if the first 3 digits are 690 through to 695, then it is Made in China. And Hong Kong is now China too. 00 ~ 13 USA and CANADA 30 ~ 37 FRANCE 40 ~ 44 GERMANY 49 ~ JAPAN 50 ~ UK 57 ~ DENMARK 64 ~ FINLAND 76 ~ SWITZERLAND and LIECHTENSTEIN 93 ~ AUSTRALIA 628 ~ SAUDI ARABIA 629 ~ UNITED ARAB EMIRATES 740-745 ~ CENTRAL AMERICA All 480 Codes are made in THE PHILIPPINES. DO NOT BUY FOOD PROCESSED IN CHINA, HONG KONG, VIETNAM or THAILAND! Remember, they have no food inspection regulations! WATCH WHAT YOU BUY, ESPECIALLY HIGHLINER FISH PRODUCTS; these all come from China, even though the box says product of Canada. It is from China and processed in Canada, that is, only the coating is added and packaged in Canada. The fish are raised in pens, using chemicals that are banned in Canada as cancer-causing, but legal in China. This was exposed on CBC TVs Marketplace. Please think before buying anything from China. Avoid buying all processed food packaged in China. Anything goes there! We just dont know what else is in those packages. Unlike the United States and Canada, (and Australia, Germany, France, Italy, Great Britian et al), China does not have laws regulating food processing. Basically, do not buy any processed food from China. This includes Hong Kong. MANY companies are using a Hong Kong address to avoid this type of image reputation. Send this to as many people as possible. Do NOT buy food originating in China, (or Vietnam or Thailand)! Take the time to read labels and look for the country of origin! Your Health is at Stake! REMEMBER, THE AUSTRALIAN BARCODE PREFIX IS 93
