The Guide to Chodosh was mailed out to all of the subscribers on Friday, 
September 23. The following are corrections to the new Guide to Chodosh:



Tradition foods instant soups on page 39 there is an error in the 
code.  The Chodosh date should be August 07 not August 06.



The probable Chodosh date for General Mills oats is October 1.  For the 
General Mills Peanut Butter Cookie Crisp cereal the date on or packages 
seven months after packing.  For that the Chodosh code would be May 1 
2006.  For General Mills cookie crisp cereal the date is eight months after 
packing giving a code of June 1 2006.



The malt Chodosh date for Gold Medal flour on page 25 should have been Jan 
15 07, 18 months after packing.



In Lakewood, Capital Pizza and Madison Pizza were listed as being Yoshon 
under the hashgocho of Rabbi Gissinger. These two items should be deleted.



Yosis Pita on page 35 is listed as ÒÓ. The category should have been Ò.



Rice Dream on page 34 has the incorrect codes. For the Chodosh packing date 
of Oct 1, the Rice Dream packages that do not require refrigeration have a 
code of Oct 1, 2006 (1 year after packing.) For refrigerated beverages the 
code is Nov 15, 2005 (45 days after packing.)



The following corrections apply to Baltimore, as forwarded by the Star-K.
    * Café 921 at the Pikes has closed.
    * Schmell & Azman Bakery, Baltimore. All items Yoshon except whole 
wheat products.
    * GoldbergKosher Bagels. The words from store onlyshould be deleted.
    * Fred Weiss Knish Shop should have been called The Knish Shop. For 
this establishment, all items are Yoshon except (1) sandwich bread is 
Yoshon only on request, (2) knishes will be Yoshon only for a limited time. 
A sign will be posted at the store when knishes are no longer Yoshon.
