Consumer Kashrut Alerts


The following information on purchase of Chometz foods after Passover 2012 is from a number of sources. The stores listed are acceptable, unless otherwise noted. I have listed next to store the name the agency that listed that store on its list of acceptable stores to purchase chometz products at after Pesach. Please note that for some stores such as supermarkets the distributors are different in different parts of the country. Also different agencies have different standards as to what they accept, so stores utilizing the same distributor are treated differently by different agencies. Additional information will be added as it is received. (posted on April 19, 2012). Ask your own rabbi as to what to do in your area.

    *1Baltimore Area, Please note: GIANT, TARGET, and SAFEWAY, in the Baltimore area, buy their food items from a Jewish distributor that does not sell its chometz. Therefore, chometz may not be purchased from these stores until four weeks after Pesach. One may purchase chometz from these stores beginning on the Sunday after Lag B’omer, May 13th, 2012. We do not have any information regarding these stores in other parts of the country. from www.star-k.com/kashrus/star-k12_pesach_directory.pdf
