Question about kosher food: bacon and cheddar crackers. Has the "U" in a circle and a "D" next to it on package!?

I believe the "natural flavor" means the flavoring comes from natural ingredients, not from pork. I have a jar of bacon flavored peanut butter that's also kosher. You can copy the flavor of bacon with stuff like coal tar derivatives.

And for them to use the Kosher symbols the product has to approved by a the Rabbinical Council it is not something you can just slap on a product label to fool people of the Jewish faith into eating your food, like nut and dairy allergies now, it is a mandated label and has to be approved and documented.

Smoke flavouring and bacon flavouring is made with wheat, yeast, natural smoke extracts and vegetable powders, I had a friend who worked at Frito Lay here in Canada, he said they had 200 jars of dried spices, flavourings and enhancers they used to create new flavours, ketchup chips and dill pickle one have no ketchup or dill pickle in them.

"Natural" has no meaning in the USDA/FDA rules. Therefore, anything can be called "natural flavor" as long as someone thinks it tastes like the natural flavor of whatever it is imitating.

So, no, there is no Kosher pig.

Several people had good answers, sorry I can only pick one. Actually these crackers are pretty nasty, I don't think I would ever get them again. Mmm the thought of coal tar derivatives, its making my mouth water!

'Natural bacon flavor' doesn't necessarily come from natural bacon. It's a 'natural' favor that tastes something like bacon. Just guessing.

like Mattza crackers , the ingredient is natural
