In fact, it seems quite coincidental that the stickers are the same size and shape and only differ in color, which would seem to me to indicate that they were put there by the same institution, and the way I see it, the retailer would be the most likely candidate to have put the "baked after" sticker as well.xyznoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20257999.post-66629838568083683762014-05-01T06:16:10.177+03:002014-05-01T06:16:10.177+03:00Isn't it completely obvious that the "bak...Isn't it completely obvious that the "baked after pesach" sticker was attached by the manufacturer, and the "special" sticker by the retailer?

I wonder about that every year pesach time when many products, especially dairy such as yoghurts and cheeses but also others, have the regular hechsher on it and then have a stamp printed somewhere on the plastic container stating the pesach details but doesnt usually have the name or logo of a hechsher next to it. When I buy a mehadrin hechsher salami, lets say rabbi rubin hechsher, and it has all the regular hehshers on it but also a stamp saying kosher for pesach no kitniyot. is that the manufacturer, the rabbanut or rabbi rubin telling me it is so?
