  • PASSOVER April, 1991
    \ ins min LINCOLN SQUARE SYNAGOGUE BULLETIN Nisan 5751 - Volume 26, No. 5 PASSOVER April, 1991 A GUIDE TO THE LAWS OF PESACH I. ABOUT CHAMETZ A. The Prohibition The prohibition against Chametz on Pesach is found in the Torah. It commands every Jew: a. not to eat or drink it, b. not to own it, c. not to possess it. The prohibition applies to even the slightest amount of such Chametz because of the harshness of the penalty prescribed by the Torah — excision, or because of the fact that Chametz is permissible after Pesach — there can be no nullification during Pesach. The Rabbinic prohibition extends to the use even after Pesach of Chametz which belonged to a Jew during Pesach. For this reason, Jewish bakeries and other food stores which do not sell their Chametz before Pesach should not be patronized for approximately a month after the holiday so that no Chametz product which belonged to them during Pesach would be consumed even afterwards. However, this prohibition applies only to products which are in the category of Chametz B'ein (see below). B. The Forms of Chametz 1. Chametz B'ein — Pure Chametz — The combination of any of the five grains mentioned in the Torah (wheat, barley, rye, oats and spelt), or any of their derivatives (such as flour) with water or moisture for a period of eighteen minutes during which the mixture is not stirred, results in Chametz. (This process, described in the Talmud in terms of its appearance, is not identical with the process of fermentation. Chametz appears to be an arbitrarily defined state, not a scientifically definable condition.) Thus, included in this category are bread, cakes and pastries, beer, grain alcohol, and even matzah which was not specially prepared for Passover use.

  • What Is Green Kosher? | 1
    What Is Green Kosher? | 1 “Green Kosher” is the new advertising tag for Empire Kosher food processors, based in rural Pennsylvania. But what does it mean? There is an important backstory here. Empire is the nation’s leading kosher poultry producer, which has aggressively pursued a progressive image in the media (and particularly the Jewish media). It has done this even more aggressively in light of the shameful behavior of Agriprocessors, previously the nation’s leading producer of kosher meat, which was sort of the poster child of hypocritical religion and perverted business ethics: hiding behind its image of ultra-Orthodox piety, the owners of Agriprocessors abused their animals with inhumane practices, dumped untreated animal waste effluent into local rivers, violated minimum wage laws, busted attempts at unionization, and hired illegal immigrants to use child labor. And through all of this, it was defended by large swathes of the ultra-Orthodox establishment. All okay if you talk to God everyday, I suppose. Finally, ICE raided the plant, the federal government administered tens of thousands of dollars in fines, Agriprocessors filed for bankruptcy, and its owner Shlomo Rubashkin, was convicted of several counts of financial, wire, and banking fraud. Enter Empire Kosher, which has a unionized work force, relies on a network of local, family- run farms for its poultry, and uses only cage-free eggs and chickens. It says that it regularly submits to third-party animal welfare audits. It lavishly funds Hazon, the organization spearheading the Jewish sustainable food movement. Its current CEO, Greg Rosenbaum, collects humanitarian awards by the handful and is close with Bill Clinton.

JARED JACOBSONt INTRODUCTION Over ninety years ago, the federal government began to recognize the consumer's right and need to be protected from widespread deception in the open market.1 This protection has taken many forms, and has been extended by federal legislation into various areas of the market. For example, such legislation has had a distinctively strong influence on the food industry,2 particularly in the area of kosher food regulation. In fact, regulation of the kosher food industry has sparked litigation in both federal and state courts.3 Specifically, constitutional t J.D.

But chickens are expected to be available for next week’s Passover seders, Rabbi Menachem Genack, CEO of the Orthodox Union’s Kosher Division, which supervises the Empire facility, told Crain’s New York on Thursday. The Mifflintown plant, which has 550 employees, is scheduled to reopen on April 13, according to the report. A spokeswoman for the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture told Crain’s that the state did not order the closing. The Lewistown Sentinel, citing an internal memo from Empire Kosher CEO Jeff Brown, reported that there would be “several complete sanitization procedures” performed on the facility. The memo said that Empire has “implemented the recommended preventive measures as outlined by the World Health Organization, the CDC, the USDA, and local public health officials.” It is not known in what area the employees who tested positive for the coronavirus worked.

D, Environmental Program Susan Leff, Executive Director, Jewish Communities of Vermont Abstract The laws of kashrut delineate the Jewish dietary practice and prohibitions. Certified kosher food is readily found in super markets across the world, despite the fact that Jews account for only .2% of the world’s population, and 1.4% of the US population. Processed kosher food is easily accessible in the United States, but kosher meat is scarce in regions where there are smaller Jewish communities such as Vermont.
