Which item has PLU code 4562?

• A. Squash yellow
• B. Carrot loose
• C. Ginger
• D. Cabbage green

Answer: (B)

PLU codes are numbers used at checkout to identify produce and help determine the price. A four-digit PLU that starts with 4 indicates standard, non-organic produce sold loose. The code 4562 is the number assigned to loose carrots, so it points to carrot loose. If carrots were packaged or organic, a different PLU would be used (often a five-digit code starting with 9 for organic). The other items listed have separate PLU numbers and do not match 4562.
