I didn't follow the link above,
but it does not look like it belongs here.
I suggest you delete it.

Where is that label from? Smirnoff in the US is 40% (and the E is a giveaway for European origin). In any case, hope you enjoyed some over Tishrei!

Hirshel Tzig - הירשל ציג said...

The label is European.

WOW - Smirnoff is not on any Kosher lists?!

How can Lubavitchers claim to be frumme yidden if they have questionalable kashrus standards.
This, to me, is far worse than not sleeping in sukka or moshiachism!

And from what I hear, Lubavitchers drink Benedictine as well - because the Previous Rebbe had it.

Unbelievable! If a Rebbe does or eats something that is later found to be unacceptable so you really think your Rebbe wants you to continue in error?
I hope not.

I hear that Lubavitchers also secretly use litvishe blood in their matzos... or maybe it's Satmar blood?

Yea, Yea, Big Joke. It's only Kashrus.

Hirshel Tzig - הירשל ציג said...

they also meet in secret and scheme to take over the world..........

Benedictine is 1000% Kosher, ask Rabbi MD Gutnick of Australia.

My understanding is that domestic Smirnoff is OK, and the imported is unknown (which doesn't necessarily make it forbidden).

"Domestic(US only) non-flavored is acceptable."

That includes Smirnoff, schmoiger!

Herschel - some friendly advice - do as I did over at creedmoorer.blogspot.com and limit comments to registered users. Saves bandwidth and deters these 2 bit menuvelach from breching all over the comments section!
