CHODOSH BULLETIN ON THE YOSHON FLOUR PROBLEM
The following is relevant for the Metropolitan New York area only. I
apologize to others for bothering them.
List of Yoshon bakeries and their situations
As I noted in the previous urgent Chodosh Bulletin, some of the flour
from one of the major mills supplying Yoshon to the metropolitan New York
region was found to have instances of worm contamination. As a result,
many bakeries that were until now supplying Yoshon had to switch to new
Chodosh flour. The following is a partial list of which bakeries are
still supplying Yoshon and which had to switch to Chodosh in the greater
New York area.
The list below is currently true to the best of our knowledge. However,
the Yoshon flour situation is very much in the state of flux now. If
there is any difference between the information given here and the
information given by the baker, check with the owner or the management of
the bakery (not the clerk behind the counter.) The information provided
by the management should be regarded as the most current and
valid.
