Someone sent me information on how to determine how the produce in
your grocery store was grown. Here's the out-come.

+ Four-digit numbers denote conventionally grown produce (that is,
grown with chemicals)

+ Five digits beginning with 8, genetically modified

+ Five digits beginning with a 9 means organically grown.

If you want to know more about this, go to:
