Here's where you come in: I have emailed the company a few times over the past few years requesting they consider getting Kosher certification. Most recently, Vicki at the company said she's collecting requests for going Kosher, and will pass them on to the owner of the company. If you've ever had their dressings, you know how good they are. If you keep strictly Kosher then you don't know, but I must say they are some of the best bottled dressings out there. Many of their ingredients are already Kosher, so it's a matter now of getting certification in their factories. If this interests you, please email vicki@anniesnaturals.com with your request. Maybe us hounds can convince them to get certification. Sat May 22 22:03:53 -0700 2004 0 RachelMolly 1 1437817 I remember getting touch with them a while back about this issue. I think the problem they had was that, in order to get certification, they were told they had to have a separate factory for their vegan products, instead of manufacturing them in the same space with their cheese products. Something like that. At any rate, if you're a person who uses products that are not necessarily certified but that contain no objectionable materials, Annie's is terrific. None of their cheeses contain meat rennet (they use vegetable enzymes) and they don't manufacture anything containing meat or meat products of any kind. I love Amy's products. It would be great if they would get certification. Getting certification can be expensive and complicated, and it's only worth the extra money (and factory modifications) if they'll make enough from kosher consumers so it's worthwhile. I remember contacting a cheese company a while back about this issue. They had been certified, but suddenly stopped carrying certification. They explained that, while kosher, they hadn't made any extra money in order to cover the extra expense. For whatever reason, the kosher community hadn't responded to the availability of their very good cheeses. They didn't change their factory or manufacturing in any way when they stopped being certified. Sun May 23 10:57:01 -0700 2004 1437815 0 Clarissa 2 1437826 Who is/was the cheese company? Thanks.
