outdated.

they JUST went to having dairy, boo hoo. I posted this somewhere…well, in the meantime this is relevant- let me look for the post- i’ll put it after this:

hey everyone,

don’t forget that if you inspect packaging for a ‘Pareve mark’, then it’s dairy free (not soy free) and meat free! Do not just look for the letter ‘P’ as in a capital ‘P’ – look for the whole word or a lower case p: Products with the word “pareve” written out on a label, or the designation p or p are acceptable. If you only see a “U” or “K”, but not the word pareve, then there is no guarantee that the food does not contain dairy ingredients. http://kosherkooking.com/What%20is%20Kosher/pareve%20food.ht m

pa·re·ve (pär-v) also par·ve (pärv)

To ease identification of dairy products (like chocolate, which may or may not contain milk), a “D” or the word “Dairy” accompanies the hechsher [stamp/mark on packaging]. Products which don’t contain milk but are made on machinery that was previously used with milk may have “DE” or Dairy Equipment accompanying the hechsher [stamp/mark on packaging]. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hechsher
