There are a variety of different types of bar codes. However, the U.P.C. symbol is the most recognized bar code in the United States, since it appears on almost every retail product. The U.P.C. symbol is the bar code representation of the UCC-12. (Universal Product Number) which consists of twelve numeric characters that uniquely identify a company's individual product. Although, the initial U.P.C. usage was focused on retail point of sale (POS), many other industries have adopted this coding structure.

FOOD LABELS Explained - - Food labels carry useful information to help you make choices about food. The food label will tell you if the food contains an additive that you may want to avoid. The nutrition information panel allows you to compare similar products and choose the one that suits your needs. The 'use by' or 'best before' date means that food stored in the recommended way will remain of good quality until that date. However, these terms are not interchangeable. For example, it may be safe to eat foods after their 'best before' date, but they may have lost quality and some nutritional value.
