When Rav Falk came out with his sefer on insects he admitted that America-Canada was in a better position that what he poskened on in the UK
Bluberries are the same issue so basicly stay away from grapes blackberries rasberries strawberries melons are fine pineapple as your rav kiwi is fine . So basicly a real kosher fruit platter looks real biring
This is how they recommended years ago to clean Strawberries but then they changed their minds. Thus, I would put grapes in same level as strawberries. Why wait a few years and find out you were eating bugs all these years. Even on Yudels/Vaye Cheshbon.

DeleteJust to be clear Grapes can have mites, thrips, aphids, phylloxera and worms. Phylloxera commonly found in California brands.

Many grape species are immune to phylloxera fly infestation
ReplyDeleteIn theory, but when checking multiple grape brands from California and finding Phylloxera it’s hard to ignore what’s in front of you.
