RE: Wild salmon anisakis

It's a known fact that wild salmon have anisakis worms in their flesh. Only the farmed salmon does not have the worms in the flesh.

There is a store in Borough Park thsam is selling wild salmon from Norway & Scandanvia that they claim to check with a black-light. It's of interest that they claim they don't find any worms in the wild salmon.

There was an unreliable hashgocha that was certifying a large fish monger operation without an on-site mashgiach. He was asked how do you know they don't have non-kosher fish. He says he has a special electronic "wand" that he waves over the containers of fish & it beeps if there any non-kosher species.
He was asked how do you know it works? Well it never beeped. 

Don't purchase any fish in that type of store!

Even in China where they are in darkened room with black light, they only remove some of the larger worms, not all of them so it's still an infested fish & can't be eaten.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 22 (UPI) -- WASHINGTON, Dec. 22 (UPI) -- The biotech industry said a U.S. government report on genetically engineered salmon would move the technology closer to the market. The Food and Drug Administration Friday released a draft report on so-called AquAdvantage salmon that concluded they were safe to eat and would not harm the environment.

ALL Cigarettes were "assered" by the Chofetz Chaim

Many people in Lakewood who bought cigarettes online some years ago are now being sent letters from the NJ Department of Taxation that they have to pay taxes on those purchases. Do you know of this? Is there a way to fight it? What should they do about it? Could you post about this?


Thank You

Why " Smith Brothers" not "Ricola" cough drops?

The Ricola brand cough drops sometimes has a Hashgocha from a Rav in Switzerland, and at times does not have the hashgocha. Either way it's not to be relied upon.

The Smith Brothers cough drops OU certified (not D), is reliable.
