In response to a question

At a gathering of Lakewood Askonim (lishaim shumaiyim) a question was asked on this weeks sedrah "Ki sisah".

There were 600,000 men over 20 that left mitzraiyim, so there were an equal amount of women and at least twice as many children. In total there were at least 1,800,000 that they collected gold for the "aigel". Each one gave at least an ounce of gold, that would be over 100,000 lbs of gold.

Sardines are "kovush" with non-kosher species?

It seems the issue was found by sardines, most recently from Morocco by the Aidah.

They usually do 3 inspections of removing the non sardine species allong the way till they rid the whole batch of sardines from the non kosher species.

Sliced frozed vegies, do they require a Hashgocha?

Frozen vegies are blanched prior to freezing & packaging. The blancher itself or the heating medium may have kashrus issues, e.g. dairy, treif, etc.

Therefore it should not be used without a proper hashgocha.

What other name does Strawberries have?

Strawberries have thrips that hide under the seeds, cleaning may minimize but does not all of them. That's true for fresh, frozen, chocolate dipped, long stem, USA fancy, Driscoll, etc.

In frozen there are coming out with all different Hashgochas, distributors, etc. All the various names & hashgochas don't change the facts.

Strawberries- Fresh, dipped, frozen, dehydrated, etc in any form must be peeled or pureed prior to consuming them.
