They candidly said it had nothing to do with any problem ingredients, but they don't certify dairy bread period. I'm surprised to hear that the OU certifies dairy bread.tesyaanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20257999.post-18161214833419611862014-11-10T17:05:52.506+02:002014-11-10T17:05:52.506+02:00normally dairy breads would be baked into unique s...normally dairy breads would be baked into unique shapes so they are easily identifiable as being different than normal bread.

Same for bourkas. Just make sure the shelves and products are labeled accordingly and let the consumer take some responsibility and be careful, as humans tend to do when something is important to them. Its paternalism at its best dictating how food must be structured and appear because some people may make a mistake. They're makpid on all the halachot of shabbat & kashrut, davening and other 613 mitzvot? They really should not have a problem differentiating between doughnuts no matter what shape they are. The State of Israel should not have rules how certain food should be shaped. It's comical and sad at the same time.

Jelly could also come out of the top but people would realize it's only jelly and not something dairy.<br /><br />So the confusion could come in for some of the dairy-imitation fillings, I believe I've usually seen pareve custard even though the "look" and original recipe is dairy. At least in that case I wouldn't mistakenly take a donut that I'm sure has jelly - I would inquire if the custard is pareve or not (or look at the sign).MiriamSnoreply@blogger.com
