Plastic yisroel cups

Why settle for plastic stam cups when you can buy plastic yisroel and ensure that you Pesach is chometz free.

When you use plastic stam cups on Pesach, you face the real danger of using something that contains chometz. A worker may have been eating chometz and accidentally dropped it into the vat of molten plastic. A rodent, carrying chometz may have fallen in at any point of the manufacturing process. Would you risk drinking from something that may contain rat, or, worst of all, chometz?

At our factory, we have mashgichim stationed at every critical area of the manufacturing process to ensure that such accidents never happen. We pride ourselves on manufacturing the best, cleanest and chometz free plastic yisroel cups possible.

Don't give in to your yetzer hara, buy plastic yisroel!

    Wife said the company might find this post and use it for advertising.

  2. I assume this is of inferior quality and costs twice as much?

    Next year I'm selling kosher l'pesach toilet paper. You never know if a workers lunch fell into the paper machine and now you're wiping yourself with it on pesach and bringing it into your home.

  3. They are, however, imported from Europe. I guess that would be Queens or Bronx. Europe is northeast of Brooklyn and Queens and some of Bronx are northeast of Brooklyn and that means they're in Europe.

    Dude, tablecloths!!!

    btw, I like how they always write "kosher for Passover and year round use."
    Is there anything that can be kosher for Passover and not be kosher during the rest of the year? Besides macaroons which are not kosher outside of pesach because they're dangerous to your health.

  4. Yeah, I've always enjoyed the "kosher for passover and year round" thing. Someday I want to make something thats only kosher for pesach and treif year round.

    The tablecloth problem was solved by those kosher plastics that people throw over their possibly treif white cotton ones on shabbos.

    There really is a market out there for kosher anything. I'd love to get in on it. Whats better than a trapped customer base?

  5. But those plastic tablecloths aren't kosher for pesach!

  6. My family pours a thin layer of plutonium over our table before pesach. Kills all those chometz molocules and gives the table a healthy green glow.

  7. You think that's funny?
    One of my friend's wife sands and lacquers the table every year before Pesach.

  8. oy vey!

    people are retarded. funniest thing is, in the olden days it was common for people to live on dirt floors!!

  9. Now that I find hard to believe.

    Just wondering: Is every heimish product required to have unappealing packaging? Not once have I ever seen a kosher product with nicely done packaging. Especially considering all the girls who major in graphic design. That kosher ice cream packaging is the worst offender. Blooms or something? It's a hot pink tub with green lettering.
    Heimish products generally use only two or three colors to save printing costs.

  10. frumskeptic: Its actually well known they would dig up the dirt and replace the top few inches with fresh dirt and shovel out the old dirt.

    Seriously.

  11. frum punk: O man...i didn't know that.

    That is crazy!

  12. A nicely done package will cause men to have impure thoughts about the designers. I thought this was pretty obvious.

  13. yes, but the ugly package may make them think about the beautiful shiksa they had seen on the subway!

  14. I know that every time I look at a box of Tide I cant stop myself from thinking about doing a shiksas laundry.

  15. Does anyone actually know what Kos (the cup company name) means in Arabic? :)

  16. Just looked it up.
    Heh, heh, he said kos.

  17. I heard an explanation to "Kosher for Passover and year round" That means that factory is open all year long and those vegies or whatever is manufactured and is in the store in January are not last year's stuff. (of course knowing frummies it could just be a ploy to get people to buy old products)

    About dirt floor. I actually spoke to a person who lived on dirt floor back in the old country. According to her "Dirt" was made from a mixture of hay and horse dung. "Surprisingly, it didn't smell" her words to my show of disgust.

  18. I didnt see any where it saying its non gebrukts. I say its not kosher enough for Pesach

  19. Moshe: but there really is something to plastic being chometzdik. I heard about it once before, or maybe something to do with paper towels, that we used to get one brand, then they said you can't use it anymore because it has something in it. I don't remember the whole thing.

    Good point how you write that they say its kosher l'peasach and good for year round. So they should already just have that type the whole year so you won't have to buy it special for Pesach. But then again people like to buy new stuff for Pesach, it puts them in the Pesach spirit.

    FrumPunk: I disagree, I think kosher products have the best packaging. Especially the candy and nosh for the kids. I always think the kosher brands look better than the advertisements for the non kosher basics. Lets say deli if you look at their packaging it always just says the words and that is it, a lot of time the label looks so plain that you would think it was fake food like a toy.

    MLevin: interesting explanation.

  20. It was about Bounty paper towels and was said by Rabbi Blumenkrantz and Rabbi Belsky of OU disagrees with him on that and says they're ok.
    No one ever said anything about plastic.

  21. I noticed a bunch of Kol Koreh's in the neighborhood regarding people being lax with their electric shavers. The lift and cut technology presents a serious problem when it comes to a mitzva dioraisa. While I'm aware that one may possibly modify a model which is letatchila not good, I was wondering whether there are any contemporary sources that indicate which brands/models are fine. After a number of rabbis could not tell me a specific answer, I ran into a Chaim Berlin friend of mine who told me that all lechatchila kosher models to date are listed in the Rabbi Blumenkrantz Pesach digest. That was definitely helpful. The Buzz (a local Flatbush electronics joint) on Coney Island Ave. (between J &K) sells at least one of such models.

  22. That's funny how anything "kosher" can be found in R' Blumenkrantz's book.
