Produce Sticker Numbers: The Key to Organic or "Frankenfood"


Be sure to check out these great simple tips on quickly identifying types of produce (organic, conventional, and GMO) by the first number on the item's sticker: Insider Information for Organic Shoppers @ Healthy Child Healthy World.

1. Organic produce always starts with the number 9.
2. Conventionally Grown produce always starts with a 3 or a 4.
3. Genetically Modified produce always starts with the number 8.
Super easy to remember!
