Good News for the Community: New Turkey Products Under CHK Supervision

CHK Vaad HaKashrus is pleased to inform the residents of Crown Heights that, in recent days, a special production of turkey products was successfully completed under the supervision of CHK Vaad HaKashrus.

The shechita and production took place in Montreal, with shochtim from Anash, with careful attention to all aspects of the shechita, inspections, and production, in accordance with the halachic standards of the Vaad HaKashrus.

The products were produced by Yossi’s Cuts under the supervision of CHK, and include Sliced Oven Roasted Turkey Breast, Sliced Cooked Turkey Pastrami, and Sliced Black Forest Turkey Breast.

The products, imported from Montreal, are expected to be available in the coming days in local stores throughout the community, for the benefit of Crown Heights residents and the broader public seeking high-quality products under CHK supervision.

CHK Vaad HaKashrus would like to thank the Chabad Rabbonim of Montreal, Rabbi Berel Bell, Rabbi David Raphael Banon, and Rabbi Moshe Stern, for their cooperation and valuable assistance throughout the process.

At CHK, we see this as part of our ongoing efforts to expand the kashrus system and bring more high-quality, mehudar products to the community, while working together with Rabbonim and kashrus teams from other Chabad communities.

A Note on CHK Quality Assurance and Standards

The CHK Vaad Hakashrus remains committed to providing the community with the highest levels of kashrus, integrity, and transparency. As part of our ongoing mission, we would like to reaffirm the standards governing our meat production:

The CHK Insignia: Every product bearing the official CHK logo is produced under the direct supervision of the Badatz of Crown Heights. Our rigorous mehadrin standards are applied at every stage; any production that does not meet these exacting requirements is simply not accepted and will not carry our seal.

Consumer Confidence: When purchasing meat, consumers should always look for the official CHK logo and original packaging. In addition, when purchasing from a butcher, restaurant, or food establishment displaying a valid CHK certificate or CHK insignia, consumers may rely on that certification and do not need to inspect each individual package. This mark serves as your guarantee that the product has been processed and approved according to our established kashrus protocols.

Our Ongoing Commitment: The CHK Vaad Hakashrus continues to work with devotion and clarity, following the strict directives of the Rabbonim of the Beis Din to ensure that our community can always consume our products with complete peace of mind.

With blessings,

Vaad Hakashrus
