An other Bulletin from the Guide to Chodosh

[Y. Herman]

BULLETIN FROM THE GUIDE TO CHODOSH



16 Dec 03



WARNING: Duncan Hines cake and cookie mixes. The Guide has always stated 
that these are from winter wheat, inferring that they are always Yoshon. 
According to the O-U mashgiach, the flour used for the mixes is indeed 
winter wheat. HOWEVER, the wheat starch is mostly from spring wheat and is 
probably Chodosh starting with a packing date of Aug 15. The code for cake 
mixes only is 2273 (227=day of the year, 3=year.) For all other mixes the 
code is 3227 (3=year, 227=day).



PDF versions of the Guide to Chodosh. The E mail address for ordering these 
was incorrectly given in the E mail Bulletin of Dec 15. Please see the 
corrected address below.



Goodmans Rice with Vermicelli has the Chodosh date of Sept 1, code 2245 
(224=day of the year, 5=year+2).



Weinz potato chips may be Chodosh at this time according to the mashgiach.



Sabra Salads when displaing the B'Datz Mehadrin logo are Yoshon under the 
hashgocho of Rabbi Yehudah Shain.

HOW TO ORDER THE GUIDE TO CHODOSH TO BE SENT TO YOU BY E-MAIL



You can order that the Guide be sent to you by E-mail free of charge. There 
are two versions available, the PDF version and a plain text version. The 
PDF version is recommended for those who are able to read PDF files on 
their computers. The PDF version is an exact copy of the Guide, including 
the Hebrew letters used this year to sort all products and services into 
one of 5 categories and the page numbers used in the indexes. For those who 
can not read PDF files, the only option is the plain text version that 
loses much formatting and symbols.
