BDE, Rabbi Sholem Lifchetz, Rabbinic Field Representative for OU Kosher for 43 years succumbed to COVID-19. He will be remembered for his diligence in checking Kashruth in the field, as well as for his kind personality, so valued by everyone who knew him.

We are proud to serve our community quality produce that is Kosher certified without using pesticides or other contaminants. KVH Kosher says that they are “proud of the exciting and innovative products our partners at FreshBox Farms offer the kosher market.” #locallygrown

That's right! Our hydroponic leafy greens are grown in Millis, MA and travel a short distance to our retail partners, like Roche Brothers. That means FreshBox Farms produce lasts exceptionally longer, giving you more time to enjoy it 🥗 🥙 🌯 🌮

Grilling Monday ~ A Perfect Taste Pop Up Event!!! KVH Kosher reminds consumers to always look out for a kashrut certificate at all kosher venues, restaurants, & events, as well as an acceptable kosher symbol on all packaged goods.

#Ricedcauliflower can be used for pizza base, pasta alternative, & more! Trader Joe's, Birdseye & Green Giant brands of FROZEN PLAIN riced cauliflower don't not need a hechsher on the label. All other brands & refrigerated/fresh riced cauliflower needs certification. #kosher

We understand from users of bamboo mats (e.g. from Home Depot) for schach that there is a reasonable chance that the result may not be kosher schach (as fencing material could become invalidated if reeds break), unless they place multiple layers of fencing on top of their sukkah.

Accordingly, we are no longer issuing specific recommendations of fencing material and suggest that consumers use traditional #schach material such as #bamboo poles, tree branches or mats specifically certified for #sukkah use. #Sukkot #Sukkos #kosher #Jewish

Do you have #chapped #winter lips? Never fear. The cRc policy is that any #lipbalm may be used - preferably not flavored. #kosher #vaseline #chapstick

Planning to make #cornonthecob this weekend? The cRc recommends that the husk be removed & the corn rinsed. Then a general inspection is needed to rule out obvious infestation. Plain frozen #corn on the cob doesn't need kosher certification. #kosher #grilling #grill #BBQ

Will we, as Kashrus agencies responsible for our mashgichim, ensure that mashgichim are paid properly and receive at least basic benefits such as PTO so they can afford to take a sick day or take their child to the doctor without losing a day's pay?
