If an item doesn't have a scannable bar code, the clerk will check
against a list of names of loose produce to get the number.  If s/he
is uncertain as to what it is, s/he will ask the customer.  That means
that a certain amount of mutual trust is necessary, but I have never
heard of customers cheating that way.  I haven't seen the clerks using
picture books here.
