<br>I haven't checked this site out, but this looks useful. Those little labels on fruit are so pesky. Maybe they have a good use. I did know about the "9" digit number, but not the "8". A friend from France had to point it out.<div><br></div><div>Carol<br><div><br></div><div><br><div class="ecxgmail_quote"><div style="word-wrap:break-word"><div dir="ltr" align="left">"Although the U.S. does not require GMOs to be
labeled, you can still find out whether or not your produce is genetically
engineered, by looking at its <a href="http://www.plucodes.com/docs/IFPS-plu_codes_users_guide.pdf" target="_blank">PLU code</a>.
For example: <span> </span></div>
<div>
<div>
<blockquote>
<div>
<ul style="list-style-type:disc">
<li>A conventionally grown product carries a 4-digit PLU code (Ex:
conventionally grown banana: <b>4011</b>)
</li><li>An organic product carries a 5-digit code, starting with the number 9:
(Ex: organic banana: <b>94011</b>)
</li><li>A genetically engineered (GE or GMO) product has a 5-digit code,
starting with the number 8: (Ex: GE banana: <b>84011</b>)" </li></ul>
