Kashrus Updates and Alerts:

Red Bull drink was a non-acceptable product (CRC Chicago list) from a kashrus point.

Recently, a reputable kashrus expert from the USA, instituted changes, now the ones sold in the USA with a Hashgocha are acceptable.

Dr. Pepper soda remains as a non-acceptable drink from a kashrus point, due to an ingredient in it, and there is no Bitul.

  6. Explain why such a key-ingredient should have bitul.

    and for you people that will eat such items that are not kosher, it's a דבר שיש לו מתירין, so it's not Botul.

  7. The crc says it’s kosher and recommended. That tells me there is not a treif ingredient that isn’t batul. If you think there is then tell us what the ingredient is and why it’s not kosher and let the crc change their status.

  8. Years ago you used to complain specifically that Dr. Pepper is milchdik. By "non-kosher" do you mean cholov akum?

  10. No one ever said that Dr. Pepper is milchig.

    The non-kosher ingredient is Proprietary information, nonetheless it's treif according to all shitas, even after Moshiach cames and the chazer becomes muttar.

  12. I'm pretty sure they're referring to castoreum

    " Dr Pepper does not contain castoreum, which is a secretion from beaver castor glands that has been used to flavor many foods and drinks. The FDA considers castoreum a natural flavor, which is an umbrella term that can include over 3,000 different ingredients and compounds. Because of this, companies aren't required to explicitly state that they're using castoreum in their products, and it can be difficult to trace its presence in a particular product. Sources from Dr pepper have confirmed that this is a myth and urban legend"
