Hello my dear friends! The world is scared of China made "black hearted goods". Can you differentiate which one is made in Taiwan or China? Let me tell you, the first 3 digits of bar code 690,691,692 are Made in China and 471 is made in Taiwan. This is our human right to know but the government and related departments never educate the public therefore we have to rescue ourselves. Nowadays, Chinese businessmen know that consumers do not prefer products "Made in China", so they don't show which country it is being made. However by looking at the bar code we can determine where it is being made. Remember the first 3 digits of the bar code, 690-692 is made in China, 00-09 is made from USA & Canada, 30-37 is made from France, 40-44 is made in Germany and 49 comes from Japan. Hope I could share a bit of information from you folks. Remember, being aware is much better that beware. Have a Blessed Day!

No problem. My co-worker does inform me about it, and so I thought I could share it among others as well.
