With all of the news reports about tainted food products on the market, eating can be hazardous to your health. A preponderance of contaminated items imported from China and a growing list of other countries who seem to ignore our safety and quality standards is downright scary.

It seems we have a serious shortage of government food inspectors, and too many questionable products are reaching consumers. So it shouldn’t be a surprise that more people, Jew and gentile, kosher and not, are now looking for that extra layer of security in what they eat - kosher certification.

All

of the ingredients used in the making of Krispy Kreme doughnuts are kosher. The two mix plants in Winston-Salem, North Carolina and Effingham, Illinois are under kosher supervision. Many of the Krispy Kreme shops are kosher. The first kosher Subway sandwich shop opened in 2006 in a Cleveland suburb. Brooklyn was the second location, and more are being planned across the U.S. in places from Long Island to Los Angeles.
