kettle_chips

Sometimes you just need a chip. A flavored chip - perfect with just the right dip – or straight out of the bag as a side with a sandwich, or just as a nosh. Deep River Kettle Chips are delicious, and particularly versatile when it comes to flavors. Something for everyone and every taste:
Like -- Aged Horseradish, Spicy Jalapeño. Salt and Cracked Pepper, Sour Cream and Onion, Mesquite BBQ, Sweet Maui Onion, New York Spicy Dill, Rosemary & Olive, Sea Salt & Vinegar, and there's even more...

• Prepared in 100% sunflower oil
• Low in saturated fat
• Gluten free, Nut free
• Kosher certified both Kof-k ( Kof-K) parve and dairy

The motto of Deep River Snacks is "We Give a Chip", and they are actively involved in several worthy causes. In fact, in addition to raising funds, the company benefits several non-profits by giving each cause its own flavor, and promoting the cause on the back of each bag of that flavor.

Some Examples:
Autism Speaks: Rosemary & Olive Kettle Chips
Crohns & Colitis Foundation: Maui Onion Kettle Chips
Leukemia Lymphoma Society: Spicy Dill Pickle Kettle Chips
Christopher & Dana Reeve Foundation: Sea Salt & Vinegar Kettle Chips
American Live Foundation: Mesquite BBQ Kettle Chips

Papa Ben's Kitchen Mandelbroyt http://also-www.koshereye.com/koshereye-kosher-product-of-the-week/2545-papa-bens-kitchen-mandelbroyt.html http://also-www.koshereye.com/koshereye-kosher-product-of-the-week/2545-papa-bens-kitchen-mandelbroyt.html It's Mandelicious!

When our own family's heirloom recipe for homemade Mandelbread is not available, (yes, sometimes we are too busy to bake it), we have grown to love Papa Ben's. It is crunchy, delicious and parve.
We were brought up as homemade mandelbread purists, but we admit, Uncle Ben's creative flavors are lovely alongside a hot cup of coffee. Yes, truly, almost as good as our Bubbie's!
Two we've tasted and enjoyed:

original2

Papa Ben's Kitchen Original Family Recipe
Belgian Chocolate bits are baked into Mandelbroyt, then laced with almonds, pecans, coconut, raisins and cherries.

lemon2

Papa Ben's Kitchen Lemon Blueberry With Poppy Seeds
This twice baked Lemon Blueberry with Poppy Seed Mandelbroyt is a "fusion of tastes" -- citrus, sweet blueberry and poppy seeds.

Papa Ben's Mandelbroyt is also available in Minty Dark Chocolate, Chocolate Espresso Bean and Spicy Chipotle with Ginger & Dark Chocolate, so we guess we have more tasting to do! They are all natural, KSA Kosher Parve, and contain 80 calories per serving. Learn more about Papa Ben's Kitchen: www.papabenskitchen.com.

Papa Ben Lesser, is the author of Living A Life That Matters: From Nazi Nightmare to American Dream.

Papa Ben, a Holocaust survivor, was born in Krakow, Poland in 1928. His father, Lazar owned a chocolate company famous for their chocolate covered wafer cookies. Lazar shared his love of baking with his son, and during family holidays they made Mandelbroyt, a type of twice-baked bread that is similar to Italian biscotti or almond bread. Thus-- the origin of the company!
A percentage of the profits from Papa Ben's Kitchen is donated to the Zachor Holocaust Remembrance Foundation. The Foundation's mission is to ensure that the tragedies of the Holocaust will never be forgotten.

Lawhorn's Signature Seasonings http://also-www.koshereye.com/koshereye-kosher-product-of-the-week/2507-lawhorns-signature-seasoning.html http://also-www.koshereye.com/koshereye-kosher-product-of-the-week/2507-lawhorns-signature-seasoning.html Lawhorns_Spices-e
    Spice Up Your Life

We have rarely met a company so confident about their product that they told us that we would fall in love. When Lawhorn's tweeted us that this spice made almost everything taste even more delicious, we simply couldn't resist challenging the claim. After all, that's one of the missions of KosherEye -- seeking out the newest, best and most convenient products for the kosher kitchen.

First, however, we validated kashrut with our consulting Rabbi Reuven Stein of the AKC since the product simply bears a "K". Our findings: it was recommended. Rabbi Howard L. Seif of Hollywood, Florida supervises it as kosher, parve. Once the kashrut was approved, we began to shake, shake, shake. We were anxious to see if Lawhorn's original Signature Seasoning was as special and versatile as its spokesmen declared. It was! (Do read our full feature (LINK)
Consumers agreed, and now Lawhorn's has developed 3 new spice flavors.

And the new low sodium blends are:
• Italian for sauces, pastas, meatballs, veal, chicken, salads, garlic bread and breadcrumbs
• Hickory Smoke for a "wood grilled" flavor indoors and out-- ribs, chicken, brisket, steaks, prime rib and more
• Tex-Mex for a taste of old Mexico. Try on tacos, fajitas, quesadillas, enchiladas, Mexican rice, chili, salsa and even tortilla chips

KosherEye developed a special recipe for guacamole using Lawhorn's Tex-Mex seasoning. Enjoy!

Lawhorn's is available in supermarkets such as Publix, Winn Dixie Wal-Mart, and Kroger.

Ancient Harvest Quinoa Star-KP http://also-www.koshereye.com/koshereye-kosher-product-of-the-week/2442-ancient-harvest-quinoa.html http://also-www.koshereye.com/koshereye-kosher-product-of-the-week/2442-ancient-harvest-quinoa.html Ancient_Harvest_Quinoa

Ancient in its origins, Quinoa actually has been a food staple for more than 5,000 years.
 Quinoa ("Keen-Wa") is a sesame-seed-sized kernel that has been cultivated in the Andes Mountains for thousands of years. The seeds traditionally have a bitter coating. However, once their natural saponin coating is washed off, they are pale yellow and delicate in flavor. For convenience Ancient Harvest Quinoa arrives boxed, fully cleaned and washed prior to packaging and does not need rinsing. According to the Star-K: Quinoa is Kosher L'Pesach and is not related to the five types of chometz grains, millet or rice. However, because there is a possibility that quinoa grows in proximity to chometz grains and is processed in facilities that compromise its Kosher for Passover status, quinoa should only be accepted with a reliable Kosher for Passover supervision. Ancient Harvest Quinoa imported from Bolivia is certified kosher year round by the Star-K, but for use on Passover, Star-K P must be on the label. 

  • 50% higher in fiber than wheat
  • Easy to digest
  • Complete protein with ten essential amino acids
  • Gluten free, high in calcium, low in sodium, no cholesterol
  • Great as a side dish, in soups, salads and breakfast cereal
