Subject: cRc Kashrus Alerts: Blueberry Policy Update
April 30, 2021
In recent weeks we have seen a significant increase in insect infestation of blueberries. Accordingly, we recommend that the following procedure be done to all fresh blueberries until October 31, 2021. - Prepare a quart-sized bowl of soapy water per pint of blueberries.
- Soak and agitate the blueberries in the soapy water for 20-30 seconds.
- Rinse blueberries in running water.
An exception to this is organic blueberries which should be washed and checked using the thrip-cloth method. Additionally, U-pick blueberries should be avoided as they are often infested with scale insects and other bugs. One should only use them if they were first checked for scales and other insects using a thrip cloth. Instructions for the thrip-cloth method can be found here. ************************************************************************************ TO REPLY TO THIS EMAIL, please send your comment or question to the cRc at info@crcweb.org The cRc's app is available for the iPhone, Android, Kindle, and BlackBerry 10.
