hello and welcome to starcade special Pesach webinar we hear in our Starkey offices in Baltimore Maryland I'm a big big ol burger to my right is rather a barf buyer once again thank you for coming back yep for this special yearly event we want to mention that the starcade 2018 basic book is out together with Roe my bestest medicines available at your local book store or at Israel book shop online also our app available for your iPhone your Android you can get that information all at Starrcade org we encourage you to look at look at that information as you can see we have an array of products here in front of us then we're going to discuss some of them or hopefully many of them not everything that you see here is consuming things up but they are they are graciously lent to us by seven-mile market Baltimore and we thank them for that service and we have on the bottom left of your screen actually I'm going to move right now to make it like this on the bottom of your screen you can see the chat box and we do encourage you to chat with us this is a back and forth we have a lot of things we want to talk about but I also want to get to your questions and your comments and as much as we can in the time that's allotted so let's start with some things that to try to save money then maybe you don't need to buy kosher for rabbi bar so here's one these are these say matzo bags on them these are plastic bags matzo bags yeah okay I'm just describing what it is if you miss something by the way we archive these classes and star - akkada org and you can you can see them over there but these are extra heavy matzah men yeah they're - they're 2 gallon plastic bags and they also make one that's column bags for your column grip and zip but you can buy the ones that it's a column bags on them they're just plastic bags really or you can buy the ones that are 2 pound on the brain so that are two gallon I mean 2 gallon plastic bags it's meant to grab the are anything up for it's a marketing tool but it's just a plastic bag and that's you know we don't need that I don't I mean they're convenient you see them in the aisle and you buy them but ok I'm not saying you shouldn't buy them but you don't need to get them special paste special 4 paces now over here we talked here about honey on our advertisement honey is something that you do need to get close your personal is it it's enough you're right this is like the truth you give this for cheap true this is this is Goldbergs but you're educated good point honey needs to be customer face of Hawaii I think I know because my corn syrup right they they cut it with concept and normally it's not a kosher issue but I'm peso if it is so until you buy honey with the kosher and peso symbol you have to get that this is Crooklyn honey from from costco you can get it and it's there all year round brand and has a no you pee all year-round the Kirkland brand and Costco has an oup and you know Costco is known for their their I didn't go Price shopping on on it but it should be very very competitive as most Costco things are like its giant this is the dresses five pounds okay I think it's I think it's 14 dollars or something like that how much money do you need right some people use a lot of money so that's a way that you can you can it's really nice to see you know the regular brand is also having the face of fish a right ear around around in that way is it's a good way through what to save money okay we do have some questions if you bought the stock a a plastid you get two five seven seven updates for free the answer is no don't because of the starcade it's because it is a fundraiser for the cola los angeles and therefore no the updates are not for free you need to make another donation you just have the kala banks at fifteen in the box the matzo bags are only 12 in the box okay well if they're the same price I would definitely go for the kala bags definitely you know want to get those kala bags to save that percentage of money lay after the shop right ibuprofen junior strength herbal tablets and orange flavor allowed on Pesach it has the same ingredient as Walgreens okay okay it's a good question and we have the I have the app on my phone but we're not totally paperless a like right but I think we could we can't we can surmise Lana's question as I see in the list that it has one brand of you know medicines or vitamins can I use another brain does that mean that other brand is also going in its go brand be cheaper well these are both store brands shop break the warm breeze okay so the answer is no because the the brands are different they may be made somewhere else the ingredients could be different the the inactive ingredients most likely the ones are the issues anyway and those certainly could be different and so the answer is no the fact that one brand is in the book does not tell you anything about another brand also the second part of your question aunt Mel washes our ENIAC mouthwash is allowed to use okay well we could you know what I'm gonna save these questions and look them all up in because I have to go through the they have to do it I'm you who to ask is nom gourmet still under star K I also see them in the book as being under their eyes go so they're playing both sides of the street and we act is an act anti at cavity rinse all an act restoring mouthwash all okay so we have to check we have to check those not necessarily in the app so I don't know if that's reliable or not we are good that's if I how fast I can do that you know act is nothing easy we're told to search for a CT okay we'll have to do some double-checking an interest of time well maybe we'll try that all all these particular things they don't Gore man maybe it a starchitect I looked it up I do have another item here for you that are under star okay and what is it no I'm gourmet has bagels that are under star K no one who may has bagels okay they have bagels okay I guess they're made with either matzo meal or with with some coastal evasive ingredients okay here we have an interesting exhibit we have two boxes of baking soda Armand Hammer baking soda which does not need baking soda does not need a piece of everybody there's nothing in it the process is not a problem in the ingredients another problem but one has one hasn't oh you one has no you pee Wow rabbit Goldberg so why does one ever know you wanna hasn't know your pee because they want to charge okay so we call the oh you and the answer is that the one with with the oup was requested by the company to have a know you pee so they sent down a much gear and they made a run and they were entitled to Sony really yeah put the oup on the box but this is one of those those areas where I would pretty confident that if like if the oup one is more expensive it's not really necessary and you'd be just as well with the oh you there's some items where are okay without a half-shirt but if you want you know to go the neck the extra mile you you know you're getting benefit by buying the one with a special face of hydrogen baking soda I don't think is one of those items if they're the same price of course for sure take them on with OUP otherwise I think you could save your money this is not kosher location on the side sugar is another item is plain sugar this actually has an appeal I know KP on it and that is that but sugar doesn't need plain sugar doesn't need a paper you don't need to get the Domino's mmm right you can get a store brand and get this door anything that plain white sugar table sugar doesn't need a piece of hat shirt however confectioner sugar this one is my Leber's this won't confectionary sugar doesn't near the pace of hasher because they and they could add something to help it flow so it doesn't get stuck when you pour it like a cornstarch these don't have cornstarch do they have anything else they have tapioca starch there you go mm-hmm because you need something tell a bit flow okay no no it says are there any misnomers cookies available seven-mile for killer Shawn Payson that leads us right a very important point that our colleague of a crystal who's been on the show and of course your colleagues here he wanted us to discuss this this issue when you people go to basic hotels and after darvany they have a kiddush of course besides for the 24-hour Tea Room all right they also have a kid in Shafter with a shop this morning or young good morning they have a kiddush what's what's what the days after shopping so you need to have kiddush there but you need to have kiddush boom welcome sue the kiddush in the place where you're having your meal what's your meal well if you watch that's your meal mmm if you have MS oh no it's like cake or your even if you have children you know that's miss onus that's that can be considered so-called meal but what if you have cake that is not mezzo knows that's not compress it doesn't have any it doesn't have any matzo meal in it right which is the way that many many many of the cakes are being made nowadays they figured out a way in the olden days the Naga box cakes just didn't in kind of in front they weren't good but nowadays they they really up their update and that's because of the gluten-free so they figured out it actually tastes better okay right so and and because there are some people who will eat abrupt and some people who will not but the people who Iike box will also eat the products without compromise right so in order to not have to make two different types of products it just most of the cakes the vast majority are now made brats it's the way of the world no not Samuel no Masamune right so you're going to the kiddush clarification yeah they're actually looking for pizza cookies right moral support email okay so you're going to your kiddush and you're eating what you're having some some soda and some and some non GU Brooks cake but you're not you're not eating Aaron kiddush boom welcome sudha and you're not allowed to do that so it's a problem that he pointed out he's worked with hotels and he knows this issue and he wanted us to discuss it and what's the solution there is the solution is either to eat the box cakes to insist that the hotel having a box cake stand if you can't do that which is like cane trade for some people advertises everything dr. Brooks well you can do we have to wash you can wash right or you can have you can at least you must drink a Revere's of grape juice or wine and that means everybody in the place it's got a drink everybody everybody who's joined not only there the person making kiddush too rough but every individual eating there has to drink a review of grape juice of wine which is say three and half four ounces of one which is not something that they would be interested in doing but when I wanted to be on say kitchen welcome Souter you need to do that so with thanks to urban Crispo we at the end we don't know of any cookies made with more matzo meal right true another way you can save money here shop right brand products this is raisins heaven oh you pee on them and we probably probably raisins there are certain brands without the oil that they were good okay right certain brands it's in the book certain brands but that's the way buying a store brand like that with with the face of heck sure would would be certainly acceptable following reasons or proof easily provided the world does not appear in the ingredients lunch give us some examples this little bunch is like great value which is the Walmart brand I believe shop right has no key required Trader Joe's also what are you requirements when Vince so you have this it says there raisins the reason that it shouldn't be any oil we don't list in their own ingredients right that's just saying reasons like this one just says reasons on it okay so those yes some made raisins with the P with the P we checked into the process and and we do approve that for a basis that's another way with the P to save money I want to tell you also on the Sun made somewhere here there are there are [Music] some sweet prunes these are some sweet prunes with with poppy and we checked into that process as well they are acceptable at the Triangle cakey process and that's fine you're going however there are diced prunes that are not acceptable from the same company really even have a P they have some a lot of oil in them really like kidney for kidneys eaters but we don't accept that that's for pizza so when we tell people the sauce sweet proves are okay with a P now we are very careful to tell them but not only the whole Pro is a hopeful it's not the diced prunes hmm okay so that's uh okay but these are some ways that you can you can save money let's let's take some of the questioners on ZFS on very identical items with IUP and without so some happen though you'd be in some don't will only kosher repast will be only kosher best ever and only it has the P that's a question the answer is yes usually if one has a big one doesn't you only you need to have the P or maybe you could clarify what you're asking thanks supposed to like that thinking so the point you were making well that's just baking soda in bacon so there's a simple idea if you have items that really need a basic lecture then you have to be careful with it rabbi buy it this is your departmental what issue what is the issue with decaf coffee the issue with decaf coffee for pizza is that sorry the issue with decaf coffee professor says that the decaffeination process means that the process that they use to take the beam to take the cap the caffeine out of the beans sometimes uses a solvent that could be alcohol based which could run the risk of being a grain derivative and therefore that's why because coffee usually there's a problem for pizza there are some processes which don't use that chemical and that would be okay but you we need to settle in House report so we have a listed again in the book oh right I think the core it actually has the same curse Anka which is one of those which is a decaf coffee that is which is kosher if it pays off because it doesn't use that process but the other ones you don't know so you have to be to be careful so that has to have a pee on the dough yes this one well actually yeah okay Pete yeah and it's a number of coffees there's some that that are okay even without the right there's a whole bunch because when they look through the process right now this over here where's the sank with the Nescafe this is this is Nescafe Taster's Choice French Roast instant coffee instant coffee that and also the house blend of the same brand is acceptable but definitely it we've just know you looked into the process there's no there's no issues there's several like that I think you should just maybe we should mention at this point that it's some K Cups and things like that also need them the same the same good Dharam the same rules that apply to regular coffee that you'll get like this will also apply to the cake up take up for occurred kick up for accurate machine right how do you how do you toss your a crude machine my Chapman is asking so that information is in our book right it's on page 29 of our book Couric how to kasher occurring machine is there a lot of details there let's let's continue with some of these questions Joseph asked what could be the problem with parchment paper that's also rabbi buyer specialty and I feel like the guy who's in left field usually but nothing ever comes to neuro here so parchment paper you've been to a number of progeny plants right have where Norway so so there's a there's different kinds of paper out there that people use for baking parchment paper real parchment paper which says which has gone through a process that they call parchment icing which is it goes through it acid baths so that generally doesn't have any comments issues but that stuff is not that available the the papers that we have on the marketplace generally that people use for baking or not what you call genuine parchment sometimes they are but a lot of them are paper that's been coated with something to give it that property that that makes it like a release agent that gives it a property or thing so that food will stick to it there are times where you might have Kittitas kinda ingredients in in paper there's starches that could be involved sometimes in paper to add some strength to the paper so in order to avoid all those issues we make sure to give it a special paste extra you told me whole to start only the majority almost every almost all of the paper that the starcade certifies I can't think maybe one is certified for Pesach year-round those are in the book right nothing special P so that also was a way to write by the way when we say in the book it also is available for free app on the app and online the only thing that's not for free again is the medic medication information ok dried spices need to need basic certification yes they do the process and the maybe some additives would we do require certification Zeb says important to know tonight it can be gluten-free and still be a hundred percent comments that's that's one of the things actually was gonna point out that gluten-free people think okay if it's gluten-free then it's not going to be hungry totally not true the prime example are gluten-free Quaker Oats right it's a cereal they make right cuz quake I mean Baker oats naturally are gluten or less gluten than regular than other grains so it's it's one of the main ingredients at a lot of cool right so that that people see the word gluten-free does not really tell you anything about about the comments proud of it although if you wanted to save a little after pizza when all these pace up cakes go on sale right if they haven't sold them the old and there's something on my paper and they are gluten free so for those books it's not necessarily you know I'm saying it's like you could get them you can get the gluten free cake you said people who want to be gonna get gluten free cake for you full year a reason for sale true okay I I do want to point out a couple of things one is we changed the books and the list they do go through changes every year and you can't rely on what was last year for this year there sometimes it's changes are subtle and you wouldn't necessarily notice unless you're looking for it so I want to point out one which is the meat and the chicken the meat and the chicken we used to say raw meat and raw poultry is cultural pace of all year round where that was our our understanding then we realized that the the the meats when they come from the from the slaughterhouse sometimes they're packed in the cryovac like in plastic and that has in it cornstarch the bags have cornstarch in them so we started to say well the meats not necessarily you got to know you know we're getting from it should have a pace of approval that they don't use cornstarch in the bags and then we started to realize this year that a lot of stores or well some stores let's say some butcher store supermarkets are starting to do a lot of seasoning and cooking in the area where they prepare their meat and chicken so they're not necessarily going to be Coachella pace of all year so now even on the chicken we took off that line and we do not say any more than all chicken is Coachella face of all year raw chicken you you you have to find out the good thing is that every butcher shop supermarket whatever that cell then repack themselves has to have it after you can buy from it without after so you can turn to them and say is it Coachella pacer oh yeah just wondering in theory it could couldn't someone just rinse off in cold water the raw to me that's a good question they have to ask they Rob we're not gonna take a stand on and does the worst that we're talking about here is a minut amount of corn starch chicken with whatever spices we're talking about right we're not talking about a major amount that's gonna get on there with you say you're not talking so much about commas if they were making kishka I would I would agree with you that it's not like it's not like happening everywhere but it is enough that we said listen we're not gonna take responsibility for it anymore everybody should have certainly asked about and don't assume this sir so for instance or prohibited seven mile market is Khosla face of all year old they're their raw meat and raw chicken it's coal basically because they do take care but not every store does that I just think we actually certify a company that makes the plastic wrap that they use to do this cryo Becky so they have a line of regular year-round stuff okay and then they have a line of kosher for Pesach plastic okay that doesn't have any starch I certified your company okay very good okay number three so you're right so we we are we're recommending now if you buy it from a company factory let's say Empire or whatever chickens are you're buying those say on them already Coachella Pacer that will come you'll see it on the label right so you're covered with that and but if you're getting a repacked in the store then you should be asking your local agency about it another stringency i know i want to try to push the leniencies but there are some things that sometimes we take a small strict view water what could be the problem of water we always said water is Kushal apace off plain seltzer you know we've started and that's generally true we started to find that sometimes they have situates in them sodium citrate calcium citrate in what in water or water Lauren's club soda and those potato probably would be from from kidney as potentially maybe comments I guess theoretically and so yeah it would be nullified bottle many times over but we stopped saying that all water and all club soda is okay we're saying you should look on the ingredient list make what you need to do anyway to make sure there's no flavors or something right and make sure there's no secrets in there so even something as simple as water can get in the book we write them any fresh bottled spring or distilled water that is unflavored 8:15 and does not list any citrate as an ingredient may be used right including those with fluoride or minerals so the Florida minerals is not the issue the Florida minerals are still another problem right those are not going to be coming um I have here on my on my notes free the vitamins Union free the vitamins we we got confirmation from the remember watch all of the new square that all free the vitamins are comets free that's a year-round year-round they're all comets free they don't have any comments in them but they they possibly could have kidney us in them so that depends on how why what is my patients taking it kid does he need to take it to the avoid taking it daddy has to discuss with his row and there is a list of which ones have have decreed ahead a list three dads a list we have it here on you know if you have a question about you can call us or email us by the way our email is info at star - Kor G our phone number four one zero four eight four four one one zero our front desk is very very busy and all entire staff is she loves getting busy this time of year but we we would be happy to answer your question about which Freda is is may have kidney s and which doesn't have your in you welcome to be in touch let's take some of them other questions are they buyers though they're building up over here neshama asks what about lipsticks lipsticks we do have a list of which lipsticks are home it's free in the book is it an actual issue I would say it's a home run because it looks like is not a food and it doesn't taste good but eventually when you go and put the little one a person puts on lipstick thing that I've ever done this but I have five daughters so I've seen it like that so they ingest some maybe right that's why generally people would be wanting to get a lipstick that is as being calm it's free even if they're not careful about that with other types of cosmetics and that's strict but with lipsticks it's something that generally people will be the same issue with chapstick same question yes make sure we can check we can check our Lena s can people be yolks a kiss with fruit such as an apple or an orange answer is no no s RK Tech has some information of how to update the app Connie Feldman has a recipe for us thank you Yosef says according to starcade book any unflavored seltzer with no additives can be used on face off yes does that apply to cans and bottles [Music] a purchase price yes it applies to cans and bottles must be purchased prior to pay stuff no no no there's not we're not there are those agencies that are concerned about the the carbonation yes because we gave our own natural sodas so we had that half but also we made sure that the carbonation was we did right but we do accept we do we don't we don't know we're not we're no we don't drink milk but when we give our own naturally so that highlights the just thinking that people don't know that even though there are some things that we do accept and we tell people they are okay but when we when we give our own texture we go for the higher standard to satisfy everybody right okay Jeff says is there a list of K Cups which K Cups are acceptable without you know you have that information yes you have some information and we also copy also copied into our our list so internalists I hope you call it office we can help you or you can gather from the oh you I need to remember there was a Starbucks I think was okay very long then many many brings many many brands narrow it's acceptable Adam Adam says how about the issue with Israeli dry diet drinks kidney astonished honor okay so well that's an issue could be with with American diet race you have that so other please just regular Pepsi Pepsi Cola it has the famous yellow cap with this with the color paste look sign on it and that's its color pesos now this does not have any possible kidneys in it right what they do is instead of using corn syrup they use sugar and the people who are real Pepsi fans or coke fans they know to get right there their Coke or Pepsi piece of time so they get a lot of soda companies actually are going to pure cane sugar really around because of the health high fructose with this Court's ipsilon for example the starcade soda that we certify the Jones Soda hmm it's Kings cane sugar all year round okay good but it doesn't so you can't use it anyway because yeah we don't have flavor right let's say the diet coke for instance does use kidneys jinusean kidneys legumes that have gone through some changed process right and that is a dispute among the authorities whether it is acceptable okay so kidneys is not acceptable for for Ashkenazi but kidney as they went through this process and it's changed it's not recognizable maybe it is acceptable that is the question and Starrcade strict about it our products do not have kidneys in Sudan and other agencies however when it comes to the dyed coke now behind the Moon feels that it's something that's necessary and there aren't any substitutes really and and so on and so forth and he does it isn't a book we do we do what we do recommend it we got our our products that are case certified for pizza do not have been conditioned last year was not right this year it is really Pepsi last year was a higher level was but then working on it for next year he told me ok ok good ok brian says SodaStream is the co2 cartridge acceptable for Pesach so this is another SodaStream fan as my family is also we love it we just make our own when ours is non electronics that we can even do any choice and you want it we use our basic yes we don't have any problem with it any problem with the cartridge is for pace up the machine and we recommend that you clean it it doesn't get comments on it and you don't wash it really so just just make sure that it's that it's cleaned the the bottles I would say get new bottles for pace up because they so I would get new bottles but the cartridges do not have a problem commission there those are fine Adam says has the proportion of non-gay Brooks eaters gone up so much that is reasonable that there are so few items with matzo meal the answer is its marketing it smart we discussed that before is that the products without them not similar are tastier than ever before and the people who eat matzo meal the other ones so why not just make one right so the people who eat are mostly people who don't eat gonna erupt right so it's like it's like a hotel the advertisers sure I'm not so only right not everybody who cares careful formats are only on a whole pacer but people who eat regular matzo will certainly inch more matzo so why not go for that that's that's that's the reason I think mostly you who this says and oh you book has a whole list of unflavored K Cups do not need special P designation and the issue with cast iron pans and seasoning yes they are pre-seasoned that's not a personal questions o year issue I would not recommend using a preseason pan for pacer well preseason usually if you buy them the season okay I mean and even during the year we say Takashi okay Zeb wants to clarify something about multo dextran so I believe clarifying that in the USA it's usually made from corn and therefore would be kidneys it's made in Europe it's usually comments that's correct okay so that's true Oh Abe says there are my best list shows multi-texture in his comments possible comments I don't think that well my best says it is cause he probably has it on the may or possibly his comments I don't think he has it as a as a definite comments item that would be unusual okay let's continue with some of the items you want to get to every buyer okay this is one of my my issues the ancient harvest kin one it's a popular brand in the United States it's one of the original brands it's a it's a well-liked product and what like company and it used to be that it was cultural okay so all the time they changed some of their production and therefore now we would only recommend it with a special run last year they did a special run okay so what was produced with a date code you see here the day code it says February 1st 2019 that was two years from that from when they produced it right it's a two year expirations that was acceptable the whole February so who won 2019 through to 28th 2019 that was no acceptable without any special pacer symbol just with the star K because we were we were monitoring it that was last year they produced it it's still still around it's still around some places like for instance in seven mile market it's not up on their on their on their pacer shelf but it is in the regular section and you can get it with those days it is perfectly cultural pay so as it was last year but it's not available in in the ready no regular regular store so they didn't make a run this year I suppose if people would want it then they would turn to the company people sometimes ask us why didn't you do a special run why isn't there a that product out there well we don't run the companies finding garbage though yes okay so if you can't find the ancient harvest is another start a brand that's called green kinwa green that's not the kid was not green that's the name of the brand okay it's called green quinoa that's the brand and its raw whole grain hold on yes it's wrong the whole grains only because they make other things also they make flakes they make macaroni they make all sorts of things and it says on the side of the box that it's produced by Andy and Valley in Bolivia which is honest arcade company so that has a stark a it doesn't have a pee on it but it is acceptable for Pesach it's available on the green Kimmel website and Amazon and other other places I assume there's is white there's red and then there's tricolor three colors white red and black so all those are acceptable for pay stuff just with the starcade without the P I think Green King will the green King will bring or they could buy any reliable brand right with a peso texture they should not buy one without without a pace of Hatcher because we were discussed in the past years and we have on our site all the issues that could be but with the pace of hack show or reliable I'm sure it's fine and it is available people do like the ancient artists print but we don't we don't we can't tell the companies what they do we can tell them we think that people would like it but you know their companies are make the decisions okay okay so parents yes are you okay with dye Coke and Pepsi for some I'm not sure what that means but yes we all came with a Diet Coke and Pepsi that have the cultural peso symbol on it yes we're okay with that no no says so at a hotel under the kaj does he mean okay those are of age allowed drinking diet coke with the oup okay so I think so if the hotel is under the star King does behind one allow drinking the diet coke with with with or you're feeling answers yes yes yes yes yes I believe so that's one of the only products where the exception is made with the condition is started for various okay mo she says are all good filter fish kosher for Passover definitely most definitely not not kosher evasive and people have that idea because they're made with matzo meal but the matzo meal may not be Coachella Pesach the equipment is not kosher Lupe stuff you definitely need to get partial pay so if you filled the fish no no no means under the kaj so at a hotel under the cage a does rub each who's I'm not sure any question Donna please clarify because we're confused with it I'm sorry okay another item that is that is interesting and we're not getting to the ones here in front of us are a bar because we're just leaving them out let me let me take a look at some of the things we have here we have safflower oil safflower oil people sometimes want to note is that kidneys and the answer is we do not consider in kidneys it is called KP and we do accept that as a base up we have here libras libras almond milk which has a okay so texture is kosher for Passover right yes almond milk that is as far as I know the only I would know that is actually kosher for Passover and that is the ideal one for a person who can't drink milk and wants to have common milk if that's not available or you can get it in our list and our God we have almond milks and soy milks and other extended our kidneys or half kidneys in them which are acceptable under certain conditions like if you bite from okay so if your children children so there are there limitations of that recommend you to if you can't get that one looking look in the book for our guidelines on the same thing with like coconut milk I believe bread coke and milk - right you should get one with a piece of texture and if you can't then there are those that are acceptable good enough under certain conditions what else do we have here a bit more coconut oil what is the issue it has a pace of Hampshire what is the issue with coconut oil well we actually have a couple under our certification this one is not runs which like they do they have it in Israel know if cooking a milk coconut water I should say coconut water available in Israel there's there is coconut oil available under the Carrington farms shop right in Wegmans organic brands has coconut oil which are start KP they have to get the pee but you need to have somebody that's gonna run it needs to be in this right door where you are find it yeah but a shop right or or Wegmans you know which are pretty widespread especially in the East Coast I think it would probably be okay the issue would be the big caleb more than anything else there are really coconut oil is not produced that hot would be a major issue but there could be initiative so if the kala is that if the utensils and the the heating utensils and the you know the machinery or whatever it could be used for summits or kidneys oils that's why we have a young okay we did get some information yesterday about Trader Joe's coconut products right see if I can read that information hope that ya hear that Trader Joe's brand with the bck symbol that's the british columbia kosher symbol for instance the unsweetened coconut chips unsweetened coconut flakes the coconut flour the triple filtered coconut oil extra virgin coconut oil reduced fat coconut milk coconut cream so those are acceptable for basic as well without any special piece of Hampshire great because like everybody wants coconut it's like the drinking vinegars right people are drinking vinegar drinking vinegars and coconut that's their health we have the we have the star K which is non kidneys anything when a star cave doesn't have any kidney or something but we have a Heckscher force fired and called the star s and it's the same as the star K except and and and and that we have the various brands that are acceptable and rice I believe right spy the meat rice right on pizza but rice can have additives can have nutrients so you're therefore it's not just any rice so we in the past years ago yeah they sort of like trying to find out a little bit about but now it's actually certified for four pixels except that it's only for Soglin and then if I'm still supposed to check through three times as is there we have we have salads may just roll and then you have Eric brand green beans and green peas and peas and carrots and all these and California delight makes baby corn and all these things which are acceptable for them and they are perfectly it's perfectly fine for them it's not that we you know we just based on reading the ingredients with telling them it's okay now actually they actually certified for pesos for stardom so that's this that's the dentist RS there is an item chocolate-covered matzo that we have remember when you were growing up lead on we do have we have chocolate-covered matzo I'm the 21st century chocolate-covered 21st century with a star K P and it's chocolate-covered matzo it is not made from egg matzah it's real matzah but there are other types most other types of chocolate-covered matzo a main commitment I made from egg Madsen so it's more cakey it tastes better perhaps in terms of that but that's only for it's only for natural elderly people who can eat egg monster or the or some other words the market is not is not that great for chocolate-covered egg masses you have to be you have to have a leniency to build a big mutts in the first place but this this chocolate-covered mass is made from real matzo so anybody can can can eat it let's take some more the questions are buyer sandy says did you discuss a large bag of Klein's raisins that Costco sells we have some clients products here but I don't know what the I mean they would need on them a like here these are Klein's cranberries and may have on them the whole cake P speaker on the back and so I'm not sure what's being sold at Costco but if it has a customer place of symbol we you have also let's say here you have a moment talk a little bit that nuts nuts you have here these are these are not standing on cultural aphasia roasted and salted cashews these definitely need a piece of texture because they roasted and the equipment could be an issue but raw nuts right so we have a holdup statement in our book that raw whole or chopped nuts like almonds pine nuts walnuts cashews without preservatives or other additives such as bhdha and corn oil are true for Passover yeah we actually have a couple of companies that we certified letter under Starrcade if the label states in this process and the planted process is kidneys or comments then it requires reliable can't be certification so in other words what I'm saying is you couldn't have where you can buy raw nuts and based on our guidelines without a space of certification and that would be fine but that would that would be an item where I would say if you boil it with the basis of certification it's not like oh it's not waste of money because that means that it was a much be up there and they check the sources and they check the processes checked the equipment and that's an item which you could you know you could go either way on that okay so Jeff says are there any start s items that would be okay for Ashkenazi consumers or whether then have a start K yes so he's pointing out that some of our items have a star s and a star K if they have let's say like tuna fish so they have let's say to an efficient I think I have a can of tuna this is California to light our brain stark a brand it has a star K P and have to start SP what does that mean that means it's good for Ashkenazim for a peso it's also good for spider interfaces why would you need a star s on it because they are more strict with the visual process and therefore it meets even a stricter visual process for app for a safari but since it has both it's good for for either rice we only have a star s you would never have a star kill me so if you see both then you know it's good for both if it's the only one it's only good for for one or the other sandy says she's talking about craisins no she says craisins and Klein's being sold at at Costco I guess if I mean if they have a reliable certification for pesos crazies usually have corn syrup in them it's acceptable I think Costco is really moving again in a big way toward to being more basic friendly for instance we have our that was always true but I think even even more so there is a company called Super Girl Super Girl super super super super right and they make soups and and and and they're being sold at Costco this year and they are Coachella pace of mmm specialist here in and but that's a good market to get into Costco and she has actually quinoa soup so she harvest of course that's proprietary information [Music] she did use Starrcade certify for facebook quinoa and it is available it's gonna be available at Costco for a peso and we are looking forward to when Costco is building okay Sean says that you mentioned using the chocolate-covered matzo practically no use it for up you come in and then for our komen for a fee called present but no you would not use that traffic comment you have to explain the joke right so Sean was right no you cannot use that it has to be you you would you be using schmancer for afikoman this is not your master you would not be using chocolate-covered matzo traffic-calming you could have it during meal if you want to do for dessert [Music] pasteurized all nuts are pasteurized these days somehow they have to be pasteurized PPO or it was we looked into this recently because it's not a stop preferred during the year for as a cache miss issue so right because all the nuts or games are getting pasteurized because they are afraid of we have not found it to be an issue we have not found it to be an issue so we do accept it and Industry generally they are exempted again that's what I would say if you bought the nuts with it Heckscher you are getting something for your money and that is that they looked at there was much gear there and he checked out to make sure nothing was was was an issue senator once in the wire peeking in he can't becomes more problematic becomes right your Baltimore we say pecans and and the answer is it's a very good question I looked into this the has to do with the size so let's read it because let's read what the the text is about the peak peak peak ants whole and half pecans are similar hall and half pecans are similar to any Royal Hall or chopped not mentioned above meaning that they will be acceptable under the conditions that we say however pecan pieces and pecans must bear a cat be symbol so why are pecan pieces a begins worse and the answer is that I mean if you're squeamish you may not want to know this but along with the pecans come little worms from hand worms yeah from from the fields Congress yes and they don't want you to eat those and you're not interested in them so they have to get rid of them so the the the larger the size of the mouth the larger size pecans and the worms are different sizes so there was they just put them through an Academy right screen they screen them out and there's no problem with their screen up the worms the worms a little they fall through the holes of bigger piano he can't stay on the top right but the but the the pecans and the pecan pieces are the same size as the worm so they can't use mechanical screening so in order to get rid of those they put them they soak them in solution containing alcohol and then the worms float to the top and the pecans go down the line so so because of the alcohol is of unknown origin to us therefore we do not recommend those with the pecans and a pecan pieces however they have pecans pecans and a big becomes our okay okay right half hole in half are big enough that they can separate them out mechanically pecan pieces and the because they say on the label and they're eaten it becomes that's the that's the long answer white becomes a more problematic we're coming to the end of our our webinar by now we're ready did we get through most of these items this here is a talk about Matson how could you have a webinar without matzo this is kabura matzo and this is 18 minute matzo and what is the difference between this is actually smaller and this is not yours so that's one difference you know the difference is that the term kabura what they use means it's actually eighteen minutes from start to finish there are other ones that say eighteen minutes and are actually 22 minute monsters we thought about this in length and it's on our website you can see why they really take 22 minutes then don't count the first four minutes where they are kneading because kneading you can't become comments so they're really 22 minutes between cleanings from one set to the other it's not really 18 minutes it's okay it's fine it's considered a minutes it's a good matzo to buying it skosh of a face sauce and it's recommended but it's not technically 18 minutes and we used to give an extra to that friend I want to say this because it's rather Hahnemann's credit will you think of a half-shirt but about we remove the Heckscher from the 18 minutes because you're behind them felt it's not it's 22 minutes and it's not exactly 18 minutes it doesn't have a problem with it you can eat it I eat it you can eat it you can we serve it at Starrcade events but it's not it's not the 18 minutes that people think it isn't therefore for that reason you wouldn't certify I just want to mention a couple of star K yeah I mean II the star came onto the Linkwood matzo bakery star KP more months the Hinch more muscle available with a star k with the star K P right I don't know this is a star K P or not it doesn't look like it Rosinski Rosinski is a new brand from Italy that's the bread aisle Rosinski this is a beer mm-hmm that's the brand that's from Italy at Starrcade beyond it it says pain a zine wheat I'm sure I'm you know much about itself isn't there's a problem there must be a specialty type of do you want important motto it must be a higher level it's obviously some advertising okay and seven-mile as mice SML market seven-mile market here multiple local makes it makes energy strong they make a hand matzah and a seven-mile speakers and the starcade on it they make matzo and this is actually what i use because yes I do this is cheap it's $16 a pound a seven-mile money yes still yes and as opposed to the others which are 23 $25 I somebody asked us does classical how many monsters yet I don't know somebody somebody asked us that that why is it so cheap perhaps they're using leniencies in the production I explained to him it's nothing actually they keep all of the rules that we go there and you say the pliancy is in their profit right so mileage just isn't trying to make a lot of money loss leader it's a cost product you know public service it's a public service that they wonder then you know it's it's a that's why there's nothing wrong in Lincoln ceasing and when you say like Costco does sell sometimes more matzo also like $15 a pound it doesn't mean that there's any specific particularly Joyce's Costco's matzo $15 a pound okay and and I'm pain is French for bread okay so that's all it means so it just means that it's matzah so that's what it says on the box the Rosinski brand pain Hazim mm-hmm okay I'm not sure if we got to all your questions we want to thank you for joining us if we did not get to your question please feel free to email us at info at star - Kor G or you can
