Are frozen strawberries kosher?

Question:

Dear rabbi,
Thank you for allowing me to ask a question.
Are frozen strawberries bought in any supermarket kosher? Even though they've probably not been checked, can they be used in smoothies (without checking)?

 

Answer:

Hello,

Frozen strawberries need a reliable hechsher that certifies that it is bug free. They may however be used for smoothies, as the bugs are no longer whole.

Best wishes
