Hey watch out for the flood of people that are glad the Orthodox Jewish Community has sued AZNT. For Trademark Infringement. I expect Cindy here soon to explain how AZNT was dead wrong and should never have listed and marked the Stevia product as Kosher. There is a financial gain for doing so at passover. That makes it a real problem. They where warned from what I have seen and failed to comply.

I hope those opposed to this sort of thing don't go overboard. After all it was only to sell the product to Jews during Passover. Unless there is another reason for marking it in such a manner. I believe those Orthodox Jews were reasonable. They acted to protect their people from the markings that would deceive them. The poor consumers knew nothing about little bits and pieces of here and there law,
they merely relied on the markings to set the table before there loved ones for the celebration sacred Seder.

I for one cannot say that this was actually done by AZNT. However, there was a warning posted in March I believe. Apparently it went without reaction. That is probably the "heart of the law.

I will have to check back to be sure. Glad I didn't place it on my table.
