2 Yoshon Alerts - Gefen & Shindlers
Update

The following alerts are from Rabbi Y. Herman, editor of the Chodosh/yoshon guide. REVISED ALERT!! The Gefen Company asked that an urgent bulletin be issued. Two batches of Gefen barley, that went to the stores during the week of Nov 11, are NOT YOSHON. These have the codes of 10-22-09 and 10-29-09. Gefen had a contract with a company to store Yoshon barley to last the entire season. However, that company went bankrupt and the stock of Yoshon barley was liquidated. Gefen has not been able to secure replacement stocks of Yoshon barley. Therefore, until further notice, all Gefen barley with date code of 10-22-09 or later is Chodosh. The following has just been sent from the Star-K hashgocho in Baltimore: Until further notice, SHINDLER’S FISH STICKS and SHINDLER’S FISH NUGGETS in retail blue packaging, sold in the New York area, are not yoshon even when the package says Yoshon. The problem will be corrected in the near future.
