Our research indicates that every bag of frozen fruits and vegetables has a code stamped on it that indicates where it was made and by whom. That's the code. Click on picture to see an enlargement of the code. The source code is a combination of letters and numbers that appears on the top of canned products and on the sides of bags of frozen fruits and vegetables. This code allow growers and processors to identify who processed what products when.
Canned products use a similiar code.
Look at the lid on the right from a can. Click on the picture to the right to see an enlargement of the code. The bar code or UPC on the lower left corner of the picture is NOT the code that identifies the processor of the products. The bag of vegetables on the right was packaged for the food distributor Food Service of America. While this make take additional effort, it's the only way to make sure that products that have been produced in sweatshop like conditions are not served on your campus.
