From the Kof-K: Please note that some varieties of Pepsi products which are marked kosher for Passover did not have the corn syrup removed from the label. IN FACT THERE IS NO CORN SYRUP IN IN THE KOSHER FOR PASSOVER PRODUCTS. In addition the only Pepsi products that are certified for Passover are those with the KOF-K and KP on the label or cap. Color coding is not an indication of Passover certification. ------------------------------- Please be advised that effective immediately Golden Star Bakery Rego Park, NY is no longer under KOF-K supervision. .................................................................................. From the cRc: AQUACARE H20 Please be aware that there is a new cRc certified non-cornstarch-based product for those patients who need to stay hydrated but have difficulty swallowing. The name of the product is AquaCareH20 (a division of Clearly Superior). This product is permitted to be consumed on Pesach. It is available in several flavors and consistencies, as noted on their kosher certificate (LOC). www.aquacareh2o.com .................................................................................. From the UOS: Subsequent to the publishing of the pet food list, there have been additional changes made by the manufacturer. On page 35 of the Pesach guide we list Vets Choice: Dog Dry: Entire range except Golden Years & Light The manufacturer has now added wheat gluten (chometz) to Vets Choice Premium and Vets Choice Large Breed Adult Maintenance. Our consulting vets recommend that these be substituted with the permitted foods in the Olympic range, i.e. Dog Dry: Conditioning & Small Breed Maintenance. NOTE: Many people have asked why we go to such lengths to ensure our pets don’t consume chometz on Pesach, after all, isn’t the restriction of chometz applicable only to people? The answer is that it has nothing to do with the pets’ diet. The restrictions of Pesach include not only eating chometz, but also possessing and benefiting from it. By owning the pet food and feeding it to our pets, we are transgressing these laws.
