Kashrus Alert from Rabbi Nissan Zibell on Chasam Sofer Hecksher Adar/5785 March 2025 is here
March 12, 2025 from the cRc on X:
Purim comes with fun food items - some with kosher symbols you've never seen & some with no kosher symbol at all. Check out our list of recommended agencies at consumer.crckosher.org/acceptable-kashrus-agencies and our list of products that don't need a hechsher at consumer.crckosher.org/policies/nohechsherneeded!
March 21, 2024 from the Scroll-K of Denver:
As we celebrate the joy of Purim, please be mindful of the following Kashrus concerns:
1. As always, we recommend that you check all packaged items for proper certification.
2. When relevant, homemade food items should be identified as dairy, meat, or dairy or meat utensils as well as any other relevant kosher details.
3. A food utensil, such as a cup or tray, that is either metal or glass and arrives along with your mishloach manos likely requires tevilas kelim (immersion in a mikvah). Check with your rabbi for guidance.
