*THE SECOND ISSUE OF THE GUIDE TO CHODOSH HAS BEEN SENT OUT*

By the end of the week of Nov 9, all the local Guide distributors, as 
well as most of the individual subscribers should have received the new 
issue of the Guide

 

To receive a (free) copy of the latest Guide, send a blank email message 
to ONE of the following: chodosh at sefer.org <mailto:chodosh at sefer.org> or 
chodosh at moruda.com <mailto:chodosh at moruda.com>. Some people have 
reported that their email request for the Guide did not respond or had 
some other problems receiving the Guide by email. First make sure that 
your email service does not stop such responses due to the size of the 
file or due to the fact (in case of the sefer.org site) that it comes 
from overseas. (Many spam filters automatically stop overseas email.) If 
this is not the case, please send me an email copy of the response you 
got to yherman at yahoo,com. I will then send you a copy of the Guide.

 


    _THE FOLLOWING ARE ADDITIONS AND CORRECTIONS TO THE SECOND GUIDE_

 


    Barilla pastas that are packed on Aug 16 or later may be Chodosh.
    The codes for different pastas are as follows: Plus Pasta code Aug
    16 10 (1 year after packing). Whole Grain Pasta code  Feb 16 11 (18
    months after packing.) Oven Ready Lasagna code Apr 16 11 (20
    months). Straight Semolina Pasta code  Apr 16 12 (32 months).

 

Mishpacha, the malt in all flours is confirmed to be Yoshon till pesach.

 

Weetabix cereals with wheat. For _organic_ Weetabix, the Chodosh  code 
for the wheat is Oct 1 10 (1 year after packing.) For the _regular_ (not 
organic) cereals, the wheat is Yoshon. Malt may be a problem  starting 
with a code of Jan 1 11.

 

Off the Grill at 600 Central Ave, Cederhurst, NY is not certified as 
Yoshon until further notice.

 

Circa-NY Restaurant, 22 West 33^rd St, New York City is NOT Yoshon.

 

General Mills cereals oats code. The summary of changes at the beginning 
of the 2d Guide has Chodosh code dates for oats in General Mills cereals 
that are not consistent with those dates in the table on page 36. The 
table on page 36 is the correct one.
