Talk:Hebrew National

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Hebrew National manufacturing plant was moved to Indianapolis, Indiana from New York City, New York in 1989. The plant was closed down in 2004 as operations were consolidated with the ConAgra Foods Armour hot dog plant in Quincy, Michigan.

[edit] Kosher Standards

So what kosher certification board/organization would Orthodox Jews take as completely valid? - MSTCrow 22:21, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

It would be very helpful to describe what sort of standards Hebrew National used to determine the kosher-status of meats, and why the various movements objected to them (e.g. they considered non-glatt meat kosher, and most Orthodox people today consider non-glatt mean unkosher etc; I don' t think this is an actual example but descriptions of this nature would illuminate the issue).

[edit] Butts???

This company is currently running advertisements in the U.S. (A&E channel) which use cute graphics to depict the front half of a cow as "kosher" and the back half of a cow as "not kosher", then saying there are "no ifs ands or butts about it". I am ignorant of Judaism, but I've never heard of anything like this. Could somebody explain what they're getting at, and whether the ads are honest about it? 204.186.59.182 16:43, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Hebrew National: History

According to many personal communications from relatives and an unpublished history by my uncle Joseph Krainin, Hebrew National was founded by Theodore "Teddie" and Julius Krainin,in 1902. Some history is included in the book "To Gershn" by Geoff Sifrin, Vignette Press. Johannesburg, 1995.)

  My grandmother, Dora Shifrin Krainin, ran the first retail outlet, in Harlem, and many other outlets were run by Shifrin relatives in the New York area.The stores were supplied by the manufacture of kosher delicatessen products in a building on East Broadway.The success of the company enabled the immigration of many Shifrins from Belarus.

  The company went bankrupt during the depression and was bought out.
