Kashrus Alert!

Golden Raisins Alert and Quinoa Update - GOLDEN RAISINS ALERT: Recent extensive testing by many kashrus agencies has shown an increased infestation issue specifically in golden raisins. We have not found a practical way for consumers to check them. As such, STAR-K is recommending that golden raisins not be used, regardless of the source, until further notice. At this time, this concern does not apply to red raisins or currants. STAR-K still recommends that red raisins and currants be purchased from companies/stores that have proper storage and quality control practices, and that they be kept in a cool, dry place. Avoid direct sunlight or warm, humid conditions. QUINOA UPDATE: STAR-K recommends that ALL quinoa be checked prior to usage, even when there is a hechsher on the package. Infestation issues arise from improper storage, which is beyond the control of any hashgacha. See www.checkforinsects.com for guidelines. Most recently: Simpli brand White, Tricolor or Red Quinoa, with Use-By dates May-June 2026, was found to be infested.
