Question:
Some fruit is mentioned, but many are missing, such as mango, apple, pear, etc. Is there a general method that can be applied to certain categories, please? What if the dried fruit has an excellent hechsher, such as Eida Chareidit?
Answer:
Generally a hechsher does not apply to the bug issue, as this can come even after it is packaged. The Eida Hachareidis specifically writes on many packages that they have to be checked for infestation. Dried Mango, Pears and apples are clean and do not have to be checked.
