Kosher Boxed Drinks become a Luxury in Montreal

For many years children and adults alike were treated to a wide variety of boxed drinks with various flavors under various brand names produced by A. Lassonde & Co. Brands such as Rougemont, Oasis, Fruite, and Allens, as well as many others, were staple drinks used by kids going to school, as part of their daily lunch program. Unfortunately, this has now all changed. With immediate effect, all of these juices will no longer bear MK Kosher certification due to changes in production procedures at this company.

Consumers who have purchased these products with the MK mark can rest assured that these have all been produced under MK certification, however any product not bearing the MK mark on its packaging should not be purchased.

Well, that is too bad. Which goes to say that we should all be careful now. It is just too bad that the Jewish community Council does not discolse the specifics as to what has changed instead of simply saying that the production procedures have changed.

Why can't the MK folks tell us how the "production procedures" have changed? According to Lassonde, their production procedures have not changed. So which is it?
