Pearls pitted kalamata olives

Pesach
1

Hi,

Is this good for Passover?

Ingredients: olives, water, red wine vinegar and salt

Thanks!

I assume you’re referring to the ones that have an OU, so we don’t need to worry about the wine vinegar.
Yes. It’s kosher for Pesach for all.

Hi Rabbi Abadi,
You actually ok’d the kalamata olives last year with the identical ingredients even if there was no OU last year. The ingredients did not change at all this year. There is still no OU on the large jar of olives, though interestingly, the small containers of pitted kalamata olives which have identical ingredients do have an OU. Are we still allowed to use them, both for Pesach and for everyday?

I’m not 100% sure. I can’t remember what info we received then to say ok. I’m guessing they use the same vinegar as the OU labeled version, but at this point, I don’t know that for a fact. Try emailing them.
