POM pomegranate juice

Is POM pomegranate juice kosher for Passover?

If not, How about the following?

“365 Whole Foods market naturally flavored juice from concentrate”?
Or “Sprouts 100% pomegranate juice from concentrate”?
Or “Langer’s”?
Or “RW Knudsen”?

Many Sephardim use pomegranate juice in kheroset.

Thank you

Kosher for pesach for all

In 2019 I had got this response from orthodox union about this product:

“ The Orthodox Union does not certify this product as Chametz free, and cannot take responsibility for its Passover Status. Certain substances contained therein can potentially be Chametz derived and/or the product may be processed on Chametz equipment.”

Thank you for going above and beyond to check the products.

That looks like a generic email they respond with to all inquiries about products they don’t certify for pesach.

This product has one ingredient. Pomegranate juice. Nothing here can possibly have chametz.

The OU may or may not certify it but their certification is not what makes something kosher or not.

So chametz equipment in production would be fine for Pesach?

Pomegranate juice is a non issue for Chametz.
