Which PLU code matches Pepper cubanelle?

• A. 4065
• B. 4693
• C. 4687
• D. 4608

Answer: (C)

Plu codes are numeric identifiers used at checkout to match produce to price, with conventional produce typically using four-digit codes. Pepper cubanelle has a specific four-digit PLU in the standard database: 4687. That makes it the correct match because this code uniquely identifies cubanelle peppers for pricing and inventory in most stores. The other numbers are different PLU codes assigned to other produce items, so they wouldn’t correctly identify cubanelle peppers. (Remember, organic items use five-digit codes starting with 9, and five-digit codes starting with 8 are used for GMOs, though those prefixes aren’t as commonly applied in everyday store practice.)
