Fruit and Veggie Labels

Have you wondered what those numbers on your fruit and veggies mean? The produce PLU # on the label lets you know how that piece of produce was grown. The country of origin is also given.

Here are examples for the same type of fruit, but each piece grown differently.

4011–4 digit–conventionally grown
94011–9 in front–organically grown (I have found organically grown produce mixed in with conventionally grown.)
84011–8 in front–genetically modified
