Why this petition matters

Started by Rivka Halpern


Starbucks just chose to end their expanded Kosher information program with the Star-K.

This means that many of the drinks we have been enjoying like Frappuccinos and Caramel Macchiatos will no longer be confirmed as Kosher.

 

Here is what the Star-K has on their website regarding this:

Please be advised that Starbucks has decided to end the expanded STAR-K Kosher information program

Consumers are advised that effective immediately the STAR-K can no longer vouch for the kashrus of many of the items previously listed recommended at these stores.

Items no longer approved include Frappuccinos, Mocha, and Caramel Sauce.

All recommendations for unflavored coffee are still the same.

The Star-K's webpage has been updated to reflect these changes. We urge consumers to visit the STAR-K Starbucks list at https://www.star-k.org/articles/kosher-lists/1709/starbucks/

 

In addition, Starbucks has also decided to end the kosher-friendly store program in select stores in NY and NJ.

FOR DRINKS NOT LISTED ON THEIR WEBPAGE, CUSTOMERS MUST CONFIRM KASHRUS OF ADDITIVES TO COFFEE BY THEMSELVES BY CHECKING FOR RELIABLE KOSHER SYMBOLS.

 

This means that Orthodox Jews are no longer able to consume MANY of the Starbucks products we have been enjoying since this new program started a little over two years ago.

 

Please sign the petition to show that you care that it's not Kosher anymore and would like this program to be reinstated.
