He answered, “I’m Simply Joking!

What Those Numbers on Fruit Stickers Really Mean

Labels offer invaluable information from safety warnings on cleaning supplies to nutrition information on products sold in grocery stores. One particular label, the numbers on fruit stickers, are found in most grocery stores and provide surprisingly useful information. Here’s what they mean.

Numbers on Fruit Stickers like 9

Most people know that bar codes on grocery store products are helpful for the registers to identify how much the item should ring up. However, the numbers on fruit stickers do more than inform the computer what to do. For instance, the numbers on fruit stickers that start with 9 and have 5 digits indicate the food has been organically grown.

Number 8

Another example is the number 8. Numbers on fruit stickers that begin with 8, and are a 5-digit code mean the product has been genetically modified. However, GMO foods are controversial as some have raised concerns about the correlation between allergies or other health risks and GMO foods. Additionally, scientists are still evaluating the long-term health impacts, and little is known about the future effects. Therefore, these are rare as only a few GMO foods are widely sold.

Lastly, a 4-digit code starting with either a 3 or 4 signifies the food isn’t organically grown. Instead, it has likely been “conventionally grown.

What is Conventional Growth

When referring to produce, most people have heard the term organic, believing it to be healthier or more nutrient-dense. However, studies have shown no difference between organic and conventional methods in terms of nutritional value. The primary difference between organic and conventional growth is how they’re fertilized. Organic produce uses organic matter like compost and is mechanically or biologically treated for weeds. Whereas, conventional methods use synthetic fertilizers and pesticides. There has been some debate about the environmental impacts, and possible future health complications, involving conventional food-growth methods. However, according to Dr. Tamika D. Sims, the senior director of food technology communications in Atlanta Georgia, both organic and synthetic fertilizers have been “federally regulated.”

Dr. Sims adds that she believes people should be more concerned with eating a well-balanced diet with a lot of variety for a healthier life, rather than focusing on the numbers on fruit stickers representing an organically grown product.

Numbers on Fruit Stickers Signify a System

The numbers on fruit stickers inform the register of the correct price and depending on the number of digits, also inform customers about how the food was grown. Moreover, the number of digits matters too. A 4 or 5-digit number indicates where and how the food was grown, in addition to the size and type of food purchased. However, if the numbers on fruit stickers have more than 5 digits, it’s not included in the “internationally standardized system.”

What is the Internationally Standardized System

Most people feel that going to the grocery store is an undesirable task, trying to get it done as quickly as possible. On the other hand, what we put into our bodies helps keep us alive, and our bodies in good health and shape. Therefore, it might be a good idea to take some extra time to consider what exactly is going into our meals. The International Federation for Produce Standards has been on a mission to “improve supply chain efficiency.” This means that the federation among other things, is responsible for ensuring high-quality ingredients, “implementing and harmonizing international standards.”

Creating Numbers on Fruit Stickers

The system was implemented in the 1990s, adding stickers on fruits and vegetables. Then, categorizing them with a numerical code to ensure a high-quality guarantee. The IFPS has assigned more than 1,400 codes. However, the system is optional, meaning not all fruits and vegetables sold in stores have been checked or approved by the IFPS or the global standards.

People who are interested in what they put into their bodies may find it helpful to better understand the numbers on fruit stickers. Additionally, this information can speed things up at the self-checkout. Simply, enter the PLU code instead of searching for the item by name. Either way, ensuring the world is properly fed takes a great deal of organization and a system like the PLU codes is a perfect way to help keep track of the delicious and nutritious foods that travel across the globe.

An Elderly person Used To Refer to His Significant other as “Mother Of Six”

An elderly person used to refer to his better half as “mother of six” . Since they had 6 youngsters and this moniker somewhat irritated her.

“Mother of six, might you at some point bring my coffe?” He would holler to her from the lounge room. “Mother of six, is supper prepared?” He would agree that he consistently to screw with her, as he giggled.

She was ending up being truly furious at him as a result of this undesirable epithet, until Thanksgiving, where the entire family was brought together at the table.

The elderly person took a full breath and shouted to his significant other before everyone “MOTHER OF SIX! If it’s not too much trouble, COME HERE” She strolled into the room and said “What is it that you need, father of 3?

A young husband

One breezy morning, I decided to take a walk through the park.

The usual park sights greeted me — families picnicking, kids chasing each other, and joggers sweating through their morning routines.

Then I spotted something unusual: a frail old lady, sitting all alone on a bench, weeping quietly into her hands.

“Excuse me, ma’am,” I said cautiously, “are you alright? Is there something I can do for you?”

She looked up at me with watery eyes and said, “Oh, young man, I have the best life anyone could ever ask for.”

This was not the answer I’d expected. Curious, I took a seat next to her. “That sounds wonderful,” I said gently. “What’s making you so upset?”

With a wistful sigh, she began her story. “I’m married to a 22-year-old man who treats me like a queen. Every morning, he brings me breakfast in bed — fresh waffles, syrup, and a latte just the way I like it. He massages my feet afterward to start my day right.”

“Wow,” I said, nodding, “that sounds amazing.”

“Oh, but there’s more,” she continued. “He cooks me a gourmet lunch every afternoon, serenades me with his guitar while I relax in the garden, and spoils me with candlelit dinners. He even writes poetry just for me!”

I was thoroughly impressed. “He plays the guitar for you? How romantic! That sounds like a dream. But why are you crying?”

She sniffled loudly, tears streaming down her cheeks. “Because… I can’t remember where I live!”

I bit my lip to suppress my laughter, but let’s just say it didn’t work. I chuckled so hard that I might’ve needed a tissue myself.

LOL!!

Hope this joke will make you smile! Have a nice day!!


An Old Woman Walked Into A Supermarket.

The old lady is in the supermarket and starts throwing the frozen veggies on the floor, so the manager asks if he can help.

“I’m looking for Broccoli.”

He informs her that they are out of stock, and she leaves.

An hour later she is back throwing the frozen veggies onto the floor, the irate manager asks again if he can help.

“I’m looking for Broccoli.”

Once again he informs her that they are out of stock.

15 minutes before closing, she comes stalking straight to the frozen veggies, as she is about to start throwing them out, the very irritated manager asks can I help.

“I’m looking for Broccoli.”

The Manager asks Madam can you spell Dog in Dogmore.

She says yes ”DOG.”

“Very good, can you spell Cat in Catsdelight.”

She says “CAT.”

“Very good, now can you spell F in Broccoli.”

She says, ”there’s no F in Broccoli.“

“Madam, I’ve been trying to tell you that all day!!!”

LOL!!

Hope this joke will make you smile! Have a nice day!!

OKES A Female Secretary Was Assisting her with new bossing Set Up His PC

A female secretary was assisting her with new bossing set up his  PC and asked him what word he might want to use as a secret key to sign in with.

Needing to humiliate his new secretary a piece and let her know where they stood, he pompously advised her to enter ‘pen!s.’

Without squinting or saying a word, she entered the secret phrase.
She then nearly passed on chuckling at the PC’s reaction:

Secret key Dismissed.
NOT LONG ENOUGH!

In the first part of the day of Harvey’s 40th birthday celebration, he truly didn’t want to awaken.

Harvey figured out how to get a hold of himself and go down the stairs for breakfast, trusting his significant other would be lovely and say, “Cheerful Birthday!” and potentially have a little present for him.

Tragically, she scarcely said great morning, not to mention “Cheerful Birthday.” He thought… Indeed, that is marriage for you, however the children… They would recollect.

His children, be that as it may, came stomping on down the steps, had their morning meal, and even didn’t let out the slightest peep to him. So when he escaped the house and began for work, Harvey felt pretty dumpy and dejected.

As he strolled into his office, he felt quite a bit improved. That is on the grounds that his secretary Annabelle said, “Great Morning Chief, and by the way Blissful Birthday!”. All things considered, something like somebody recollected.

Paul woke up with a huge hangover after attending his company’s Christmas party

Paul wakes up groggy and disoriented after his company’s Christmas party.

He can barely remember how he got home, and his pounding headache isn’t helping.

As he tries to open his eyes he notices a glass of water, two aspirins, and a single red rose on his nightstand.

His clothes are neatly folded, and the room is spotless.

In the bathroom, he notices he has a black eye, and his wife has left him a note in the mirror.

“Darling, breakfast is on the stove. I left early to pick up groceries for your favorite dinner tonight. I love you!”

In the kitchen, a full breakfast is waiting, and his son is already at the table.

Paul asks his son, “What happened last night?”

“Well, you got home super late, totally drunk, and made a mess. You tripped over the coffee table, broke it, and smashed into the door, giving yourself that black eye.”

Confused, Paul stammers, “Then why is everything so perfect this morning?”

His son shrugs, “Oh, that’s easy. When Mum tried to take off your pants, you yelled, ‘Leave me alone! I’m married!’”

Let’s keep it going with a military twist on Christmas wishes. Sometimes, what you ask for isn’t exactly what you get, especially when you’re stationed away from home. This one’s for anyone who knows the struggles of life in uniform during the holidays.

LOL!!

Hope this joke will make you smile! Have a nice day!!


A husband and wife were walking down a high street

A husband and wife are walking down a high street when the wife spots a beautiful diamond necklace in a jewelry store window.

She urges her husband to go inside so that she can take a look at it.

Although she wants it, he doesn’t have to buy it for her, but he promises it’ll be hers one day.

A month passes, and the wife is at home wondering where on earth her husband is.

She angrily calls his cell phone.

“Where the hell are you?” she asks.

“Darling, you remember that jewelry store where you saw the diamond necklace and fell in love with it, and I didn’t have money that time, and I said ‘Baby it’ll be yours one day’?”

“Yeah, I remember that my love!” she replies, smiling and blushing profusely as she does.

“I’m in the bar just next to that shop.”

LOL!!

The Groom Barely Recognized Her But The Wedding Was Already Starting

We sometimes hear about people who undergo a transformation by using only makeup. We may even see this on the Internet and videos, and it never ceases to amaze us.

There is one woman, however, who decided to go through such a transformation and it was so profound that even her fiancé didn’t recognize her. In fact, the makeup artist was truly an artist, and is difficult to believe that she is the same person.

The girl struggled with a skin condition and it was something that she dealt with from day-to-day. It caused her skin to be marked and discolored, but she was going to celebrate her big day in style.

Thanks to the work of a cosmetic artist, she was able to have all the confidence she needed in order to stand with her significant other at the altar. And she also posted the transformation online, and many people had a difficult time controlling their emotions as they watched the transformation.

People who saw the transformation online called the makeup artist a magician and couldn’t help but express how gorgeous the bride was. It was amazing, and you can even see it in the before and after pictures.

We realize that beauty is only skin deep but she wanted to do something special for her wedding. We are so glad that she was able to have the day that she wanted and the makeup artist transformed her in a way that made her happy.

Tiger Woods Impresses An Irishman With His New BMW

Tiger Woods Impresses An Irishman With His New BMW
There are certain celebrities that seem to be known by the world. Even the mention of their name is going to get people listening because we want to know what is going on in their lives.

When most people think of famous celebrities, they first think about singers or actors. There are also many in the sports world that are known by people who don’t even follow the sport, such as Tiger Woods.

Then again, there are times when people may meet these celebrities without knowing who they are. That was the case when Tiger Woods was in Irland, and we get to laugh at what happened in this funny joke.

On a golf tour in Ireland, Tiger Woods drives his BMW into a petrol station in a remote part of the Irish countryside.

The pump attendant obviously knows nothing about golf and greets him in a typical Irish manner completely unaware of who the golfing pro is. “Top of the mornin’ to yer, Sir” says the attendant.

Tiger nods a quick “Hello” and bends forward to pick up the nozzle. As he does so, two tees fall out of his shirt pocket onto the ground.

“What are dose?”, asks the attendant.

“They’re called tees”, replies Tiger.

“Well, what on the god’s earth are dey for?”, inquires the Irishman.

“They’re for resting my balls on when I’m driving”, says Tiger.

“My Lands!”, says the Irishman, “BMW thinks of everything!”

He Only Had One Wish And He Blew It

There are certain types of jokes that just guarantee to give us a laugh. Many of them have familiar opening lines, such as ‘a man walks into a bar.’

That is what we have for you in this joke, but it is something you have never heard before. The lines may be familiar at the start but the story just continues to get funnier and funnier.

I have to admit that any joke that takes place in a pub is going to be a funny one in my opinion and this joke doesn’t disappoint.

A man walks into a bar with a box under his arm and says to the barman, “If I can show something you have never seen before will you give me a free drink?”

Now the barman has seen mostly everything in his time and says, “Sure, impress me and I’ll give you a free tab for the evening!”

So the man puts down the box and opens it and then he pulls a small piano out of it and places it on the bar and then a little man as well.

The little man walks up to the piano and starts playing!

The barman was blown away by this and agrees to the drinks and then asks, “Where did you find him?”

“Well,” says the man, “I found this magic lamp.”

The man digs into the box and pulls out this old brass oil lamp. “I rubbed it and a genie appeared and granted me one wish and then he said I must pass the lamp on to the next person that did me a kindness.”

“Wow,” says the barman.

The man then says, “As you gave me a drink I’m going to let you have the lamp. Be careful what you wish for though.”

So the barman rubs the lamp and then makes his wish.

Next thing the bar has ducks everywhere!!! Crapping on the bar and the floor and all over the customers! The barman shouts at the man saying, “I wished for a million Bucks! not a million ducks!”

To this the man replies, “And you think that I wished for a 12-inch Pianist?!”

Man Calls Home And Learns His Wife Is With ‘Uncle Paul’ In The Bedroom

There are many times in life when we may run across stressful situations. Some of those situations are easy to overcome but there are others that may stick around for quite some time. Perhaps one of the most difficult things that we would face in life is when our significant other is unfaithful to us. The moment that we discover this infidelity, it really changes our life in a way that we may never recover from. It’s a serious situation, but it’s also the subject of a hilarious joke that will keep you laughing.

“Hello?”, “Hi honey. This is Daddy. Is Mommy near the phone?”

“No Daddy. She’s upstairs in the bedroom with Uncle Paul.”

After a brief pause, Daddy says, “But honey, you haven’t got an Uncle Paul.”

“Oh yes I do, and he’s upstairs in the room with Mommy, right now.”

Brief Pause. “Uh, okay then, this is what I want you to do. Put the phone down on the table, run upstairs and knock on the bedroom door and shout to Mommy that Daddy’s car just pulled into the driveway.”

“Okay Daddy, just a minute.” A few minutes later the little girl comes back to the phone. “I did it Daddy.”

“And what happened honey?” he asked.

“Well, Mommy got all scared, jumped out of bed with no clothes on and ran around screaming. Then she tripped over the rug, hit her head on the dresser and now she isn’t moving at all!”

“Oh my God!!! What about your Uncle Paul?”

“He jumped out of the bed with no clothes on, too. He was all scared and he jumped out of the back window and into the swimming pool. But I guess he didn’t know that you took out the water last week to clean it. He hit the bottom of the pool and I think he’s dead.”

***Long Pause***

Then Daddy says, “Swimming pool? …. Is this 486-5731?”
