most painful stings on the planet.
Luckily, These octopuses are immune to toxicity, A fact demonstrated.

Brandish them as weapons

BARRELEYE (hidden eyed fish)

This deep-sea fish won't be winning any
beauty contest soon, The reason? ITS EYE, rather than being located on the outside of the head, are enclosed in a transparent, fluid-filled compartment, almost like passengers peering out of a can windshield, These ultra sensitive eyes scan upwards for silhouettes of prey.

HOW TO READ BAR CODES

ALWAYS READ THE LABELS ON THE FOODS YOU BUY--NO MATTER WHAT THE FRONT OF THE BOX OR PACKAGE SAYS, TURN IT OVER AND READ THE BACK---CAREFULLY!

With all the food and pet products now coming from China, it is best to make sure you read label at the supermarket and especially Walmart (ASDA - US owned) when buying food products.
Many products no longer show where they were made, only give where the distributor is located.
The whole world is concerned about China-made "black hearted goods".
Can you differentiate which one is made in Taiwan or China ?
The world is also concerned about GM (Genetically Modified) foods; steroid fed animals etc in USA.

It is important to read the bar code to track its origin.
How to read Bar Codes .... interesting!
This may be useful to know when grocery shopping, if it's a concern to you.
GREAT WAY TO "BUY UK" AND NOT FROM CHINA or USA!!
If the first 3 digits of the barcode are 690 691 or 692, the product is MADE IN CHINA. 471 is Made in Taiwan .
If the first 3 digits of the barcode are 00 - 09 then it's made or sourced in USA
This is our 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 from which country it is made.

However, you may now refer to the barcode - remember if the first 3 digits are:
690-692 ... then it is MADE IN CHINA
00 - 09 ... USA & CANADA
30 - 37 FRANCE
40 - 44 GERMANY
471 ... Taiwan
49 ... JAPAN
50 ... UK

We need every boost we can get! Pass this on to everybody.
The government won't help us, so we MUST help ourselves.
