****OTHER KASHRUT
INFORMATION****
We have recently
received a number of enquiries about a catfish known as Vietnamese River Cobbler
(also known as Basa, Panga or Boucourti), which has appeared in supermarkets and
fishmongers. This fish is Not Kosher.
There has been
some confusion over the Kellogg’s entry under ‘Cereal, Fruit & Nut Bars’ on p.8
of the Kosher Nosh Guide Summer 2009. The listing of all varieties as ‘NK’
refers ONLY to the cereal bars and not to any Kellogg’s cereals (which are not
included in the Nosh Guide). Later versions of the Nosh Guide have been amended
to make this distinction clear. To check which Kellogg’s cereals are kosher,
visit the Kosher Product Search on our website
