Passover Kashrut alert on Multiple Certifications on Passover products particularly products containg kitniot

-

April 2, 2019 from COR Detroit: .

Multiple Certifications: Some brands, e.g. Osem, do not bear the same certification on all of their products. Each product should be checked for a reliable certification. - In addition, some brands, especially those from Israel, bear more than one certification on a single package, but not all those certifications include approval for Pesach. In particular, the Badatz of Eida Hachareidissymbol often states specifically that its endorsement does not include Pesach. All products should be carefully examined for a reliable Pesach endorsement. - Some products bear a non-Pesach certification printed on the label, and have an added stamp (often on the lid) saying Kosher for Pesach, but with no identification of the certifying organization. These should not be relied upon.

Ed. Warning: For people who do not eat Kitniot, many of these products have in small print - Kosher for Passover for people who use Kitniyos

Passover Kitniot & Misplaced Package Alert

March 24, 2019 from the editor:

Shoppers should check each package in the Passover section of the store for the proper Passover certification. Identically packaged products with and without Passover certifcation are occationally placed mistakenly together. Now there are many products containing kitniot now on the Passover shelves, so Ashkenazi consumers need to check package carefully for the "Ochlei kitniot" designation.
