How do you tell organic produce apart from commercial produce?
I was cleaning out some old files and I found some brief notes I jotted down about how to know from the SKU ( barcode ).
- conventionally farmed produce has an item-dependent, fixed, 4-digit numbering system (ex. bananas are #4011)
- organic produce is marked by 5-digit SKU beginning with the number 9 (#94011)
- genetically modified produce is marked by 5-digit SKU beginning with the number 8 (#84011)
