Produce Stickers: Those Stickers on Your Fruits & Vegetables Reveal More Than Price by Kaira Rouda
Cooking Tips
January 16, 2018
Did you know those stickers on your fruits and vegetables reveal more than just price? It's true! I just learned that the stickers are also coded to tell you if the item has been grown conventionally - four numbers; grown organically; five numbers starting with nine; or if the produce was genetically modified - five numbers starting with eight. By the way, there isn't a law yet requiring GMO labeling, so only organic produce is guaranteed to be GMO-free. For me and my kids, I'll be looking for fruits and veggies with a 9 on the sticker!
