Talking Fruit: How To Tell If Fruit Is Genetically Modified

 

Talking Fruit

How to de-code the information on those little stickers

While unpacking groceries, you pull out the bag of apples and decide to eat one then and there. You take it over to the sink, wash it off and -- with some effort -- peel off the little sticker. Pausing to look more closely at the sticker you wonder, "What do those numbers mean?"
As much as we may dislike them, the stickers or labels attached to fruit do more than speed up the scanning process at the checkout stand. The PLU code, or price lookup number printed on the sticker, tells you how the fruit was grown.

As reported by Maria Gallagher, in the June 26, 2002 issue of the Philadelphia Inquirer, by reading the PLU code, you can tell if the fruit was genetically modified, organically grown or produced with chemical fertilizers, fungicides, or herbicides.

Here's how it works:

For conventionally grown fruit, (grown with chemicals inputs), the PLU code on the sticker consists of four numbers. Organically grown fruit has a five-numeral PLU prefaced by the number 9. Genetically engineered (GM) fruit has a five-numeral PLU prefaced by the number 8. For example,

A conventionally grown banana would be:

4011

An organic banana would be:

94011

A genetically engineered (GE or GMO) banana would be:

84011

The numeric system was developed by the Produce Electronic Identification Board, an affiliate of the Produce Marketing Association, a Newark, Delaware-based trade group for the produce industry. As of October 2001, the board had assigned more than 1,200 PLUs for individual produce items.

Incidentally, the adhesive used to attach the stickers is considered food-grade, but the stickers themselves aren't edible.

Do you REALLY know what's in your dinner?

Today, 7 out of every 10 items on grocery stores shelves contain ingredients that have been genetically modified. In other words, scientists are using new technology to transfer the genes of one species to another, and these altered foods are in the market stream. And yet many scientists have concerns about the safety -- to people, wildlife and the environment -- of this process. That's why consumers in Asia and Europe are demanding that their food be free of genetically modified ingredients.

To learn more about food safety, GM (genetically modified) foods and what's wrong with them, and what you can do bring about changes:

Now that you're a better informed consumer, you can make conscious choices about the foods you buy and eat. Next time you go to the store, vote with your dollars!

Police Warning -

FBI Warning.   Listen PEOPLE

Police Warning
If you are a female, take heed!  If you are male and have a significant female in your life who you care about, whether it's your wife, your girlfriend, your daughter, your sister, your niece, your cousin, your next door neighbor; whomever--pass this along!  Always, better safe than sorry!  Not only females should be concerned.  This could happen to anyone.

A man came over and offered his services as a painter to a female putting gas in her car and left his card.  She said she was not interested, but she accepted his card out of courtesy and got in her car.  The man then got into a car driven by another gentleman.  As the lady left the service station, she saw the men following her out of the station at the same time.  Almost immediately, she started to feel dizzy and could not catch her breath.  She tried to open the window and realized that there was an odor on her hand; the same hand which accepted the card from the gentleman at the gas station.  She then noticed the men were immediately behind her, and she felt she needed to do something at that moment.  She drove into the first driveway she saw and began to honk her horn repeatedly to ask for help. The men in that other car drove away but the lady still felt pretty bad for several minutes after she could finally catch her breath.  Apparently, there was a substance on the card that could have seriously injured her. This drug is called 'BURUNDAN G A' and it is used by people who wish to incapacitate a victim in order to steal from or take advantage of them. This drug is four times more dangerous than the date rape drug and is transferable on simple cards.  So take heed and make sure you don't accept cards at any given time you are alone or from someone on the streets. This applies to those making house calls and slipping you a card when they offer their services.
