KASHRUS ALERTS September 22, 2019 a Service of the COR of Greater Detroit
KASHRUS ALERTS September 22, 2019 A Service of the COR of Greater Detroit [Page 1] HONEY: • Standard honey goes through a filtering process, which removes the non-Kosher bee parts. Even “raw and unfiltered” honey is usually strained, to remove the bee parts. However, some completely unprocessed honeys are neither filtered nor strained. If the label or the manufacturer states that the honey is not strained, or if bee parts are visible, that honey should be avoided or should be strained by the consumer. • Please be aware that “ Forest honey”, “ Honeydew honey”, and “ Beechwood honey” (or honey named after other types of trees such as Pine, Fir, Oak, etc.), generally refer to honey produced by bees that have consumed the non-Kosher excretions of aphids and scale insects left on trees (as opposed to standard honey produced from flower nectar). These are not considered Kosher according to some opinions, and should be avoided. • “Royal Jelly” is a bee product that, unlike regular honey, is an actual secretion of the bee. Some Poskim therefore rule that it is not included in the permitted category of “honey”, and it should be avoided. FISH HEADS: [From New Square Kashrus Council] • White fish: White fish heads are free of infestation concern. • Salmon/Baby salmon: Salmon heads [even farm raised] are commonly infested with salmon lice (small brownish parasites ranging in size from approximately 1-3 cm). · The entire gills must be removed. (It may be easier to first cut the head in half before cleaning). · Rinse the head thoroughly with water while rubbing all surfaces of the head (inside and outside), including all cracks, crevices and folds, and under and around the tongue. -

The goal of this publication, since it's inception two years ago is to publish articles dedicated to Halachic inquiries of a contemporary nature relating to the Chagim. Over the years community members have provided feedback that it would be beneficial to focus on topics which have a more Practical Halachic bend, as well as an article focusing on the Hashkafic significance of the particular Chag. The feed- back is greatly appreciated and the Bulletin continues to strive to respond to that call. This issue includes a Halachic article written by Rabbi Moshe Walter regarding the propri- ety of using cosmetics and toiletries on Pesach which are laced with Chametz, an article written by Rabbi Mordechai Rhine on how to facilitate a memorable Pesach Seder for today's generation, and an article written by Rabbi Dovid Rosenbaum explaining the role and function of the Vaad HaRabanim of Greater Washington. -

Only bread made from the five grains (wheat, barley, spelt, oats and rye) is prohibited since these are chashuv8 and will bring one to come close to non-Jews.9 Rice bread and corn bread are excluded from the gezeira.10 In addition, any other grains which are not part of the five grains mentioned above are also excluded from the gezeira.11 If an item which is not included in the gezeira is mixed with an item which is included one should follow the rov (majority) of the ingredients.12 2. -

Tax-Exempt Bonds (The “Bonds”), to Be Issued As Qualified 501(C)(3) Bonds
BUILD NYC RESOURCE CORPORATION PROJECT COST/BENEFIT ANALYSIS May 7, 2020 APPLICANT PROJECT LOCATION 11 Broadway Ave., 12th through 14th Floors 40 Rector St., 3rd and 4th Floors New York, NY 10004 New York, NY 10006 Project Description: Union of Orthodox Jewish Congregations of America, d/b/a Orthodox Union (“OU” or the “Organization”), a New York not-for-profit corporation exempt from federal taxation pursuant to section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, as borrower, is seeking approximately $60,060,000 in tax-exempt bonds (the “Bonds”), to be issued as qualified 501(c)(3) bonds. OU offers Kosher certification services, youth services and programs and educational programs, and the Facility will be owned and operated by OU to be used as OU’s headquarters and program space. Proceeds from the Bonds will be used to finance or refinance the costs of (i) the acquisition, construction, renovation, equipping and furnishing of one or more condominium units, consisting of 69,000 square feet, on two floors (floors three and four) of a building located at 40 Rector Street, New York, New York (the “Facility”); (ii) funding a debt service reserve fund and capitalized interest; and (iii) paying for certain costs related to the issuance of the Bonds. The proposed renovations of the Facility will include the build-out of offices and conference rooms, workstations, kitchens, and other work areas. B. Costs to City (New York City taxes to be exempted): Estimated NYC Forgone Income Tax on Bond $395,473 Interest (estimated NPV 25 years @ 6.25%) Mortgage Recording Tax Benefit $975,975 Total Cost to NYC $1,371,438 *The exact amount of personal income tax revenue that will be lost as a result of this transaction depends on factors including (but not limited to) the percentage of bond bought by entities subject to New York City personal income taxes, the interest income generated from the bonds and the tax rate applied to bond purchasers.
