Some kosher certified apple juice is commonly filtered with beef gelatin filters
Kashrus question;
I have an apple juice with a Heimish Hashgocha and a Halal certification, can I be comfortable that they do not use beef gelatin filters because it does have the Halal certification? The Halal certifiers do have chemists on staff, they would never allow beef gelatin filters. The Heimish one? We don't know.

All of their chocolates not in original packaging should be considered Dairy /Milchig.
Do not buy any confectionary item that has glazing.
Beware of their Halavah.
Their challah dough must have challah taken.
Don't rely on the labeling of any of their re-packaged items.

Alert: Mashgichim that are actually catholic missionaries earning a living as "heimish" mashgichim?
רבנים בודקים אם צריך להכשיר הכלים של פסח בשל משגיח כשרות סאטמארי שמסתובב אצל המסיון
זו תקופה שגילינו משגיח כשרות שהוא חלק מהמסיון, הוא פעיל מאוד שם, אבל ממשיך להשגיח כשרות מפני ששם הוא עושה את הפרנסה שלו. העסקנים שעוסקים בנושא גילו היכן הוא עובד ומצאו כי הוא באיזור סאטמארי ידוע ובענף כשרות כשהוא חלק מן ההשגחה לפסח, הוא עבד שם גם בפסח בשנה שעברה ועתה הם באו לרבנים בבקשה לדעת האם ייאלצו לפרסם כי כל מי שקנה מוצרים מהכשר מסויים בפסח ייאלץ להכשיר את כליו. הרבנים דנים בנושא, וכאשר נדע יותר פרטים נדווח, עצם המציאות הזו, שאנשים מן הסוג הזה מסוגלים ויכולים להיות חלק מן המסיון, מזעזע

Shiduch crisis- What's the story with pictures?
אפילו לבן הבין שלא יעשה כן במקומנו לתת "הצורה" לפני הבחורה
My daughter recently entered shidduchim, and I find myself increasingly livid that girls are expected to send pictures of themselves to the boy’s family or – worse – the boy himself.
When I was dating, no one needed a picture. When a friend or relative told the boy (or his mother) that the girl was cute or good-looking, it was sufficient. Do we demand proof – say, a report card – that a boy is a good learner or that a girl works hard? No, we trust the person setting them up. The boy and girl can get a deeper appreciation of each other while dating.
Why, then, are looks an exception? Why must that be proven? Pressure to provide a photo makes many a girl feel awful. It only adds to her gnawing sense that she is a commodity, not a person with a neshama.
Besides, who looks at these pictures? I’m told only boys’ mothers look at them, but if so, the whole arrangement strikes me as a little creepy. Do mothers know what their sons find attractive? And if boys are looking at the pictures, how is it tzenu’ah for a young man to stare at picture after picture of dolled-up girls?
The truth is that pictures often don’t even properly capture a person as he or she comes across in real life. I know I, for one, would have hesitated to go out with my husband had I seen a picture of him beforehand.
I’ve heard that some mothers want to see a picture of the girl to ensure that she is tzenuah. But that hardly makes sense since anyone can dress as tniusly as she needs to for a snapshot.
So why, then, do we demand pictures? What’s the worst that can happen if a boy goes out without seeing a picture and then discovers that he is not attracted to the girl despite the great recommendation he received? At least, many girls who are not getting dates in our picture-only world would be able to get them and gain untold confidence in the process.
Obviously, once they meet, the boy will see the girl. I’m not suggesting that girls be hidden. But there is a proper way to redt shidduchim that maintains the dignity of our daughters.
Many have suggested that I just get on board – that there’s no use in fighting the inevitable. But I’m taking a stand. It’s not right. Where will this end – with requiring girls to provide full-body photos (which, by the way, is already starting to happen)?
I refuse to submit a picture of my daughter for shidduchim, and I ask others to join me. I can’t do this alone. I call upon mothers and fathers to stand with me. If you have a daughter in shidduchim, don’t provide a picture. If you have a son, tell the other party that you do not want to see a picture. Rabbis and rebbetzins, please lecture about more respectful ways to set people up.
Finally, shadchanim: Please rethink how you operate. I know your parnassah currently revolves around sending families picture-bedecked resumes, but if we all band together, we can change the way we approach shidduchim, which certainly will be a tremendous zechus for all of us – especially singles hoping to soon stand under a chuppah.

Update: ALERT: Royal Clothing Bekeshes may be Shatnez
Buyer Beware:
Due to all of the false comments by Royal clothing affiliates, they are not to be trusted in their clothing re: shatnez or any of their other statements.
Others are considering a complete boycott of these clothing manufacturers. It will work if we publicize some new names of reliable clothing manufacturers.
Royal Clothing was
put on notice of a pending lawsuit for "consumer fraud" to be filed in Federal Court.
Anyone interested in joining in the lawsuit as a plaintiff, should contact us at
kashrusy@aol.com.
Note: Consumer Fraud In Federal Court, damages are trebled.
We met with all of the Dayonim of those that are certifying the Shatnez Lab of Williamsburgh. All the Dayonim were asked indivuidually if they know the practical part to distinguish linen and wool?, they all responded they have no clue.
I offered to teach them, they refused.
Royal wants to hide behind that Bais Din.
Who would purchase a bekeshe from Royal with that serious issue of Shatnez? We wouldn't.
