Singapore dulled your brain a bit? Lighten up. Move to Mars or Malta (Maltesers). Sweet and occasional sinful treats, for cheerful normal people... #2 anything that makes life aweeny bit sweeter for us all here, does absolutely no harm. I distribute this stuff wherEVER we go, and its always appreciated. No one's indignant except you. The fuss was in the UK, and they don't need to ask your permission to breathe there, fortunately. Spreading misery more your thing? That's ok by me too. Have a nice Chag, if you can. The fabulous people in Sderot allow you to enjoy your cheescake.....

Our Jewish Ladies make good desserts. In Singapore we have the time and the lux to enjoy home made sweet course of a meal, served at or near the end. Usually it come swith a course of fruit, nts after meal. Dessert wine is very common for Singaporeans. for we enjoy a good living standards and life style. No need for Mars Bars or Malta. May be Malta, Yes : )))) BtW Mars Bars are sugar load invitation to high blood sugar. Divesify, buy Israeli Melons the best dessert :). Cheers Dude :)))))
6. Mars Bars, now forever nonkosher until new equipment
Darrel ,   Amarillo, USA   (05.22.07)
Since their equipment is most-likely not made of copper (100%) then it is nonkosher for life because they defiled it with unclean animal (swine).....
7. BOYCOT ALL BRITISH PRODUCTS!
(05.22.07)
8. kashering
ben ,   singapore   (05.22.07)
Khosher maybe but the equipment must go thorugh kashering, The ingredients is also a big question.Must pass Khasrut. Recently the Japanese shushi, they wer e saying it all fish with fins but the ingredients like prawn past, squid juice and equipments will not be suitable. NOT KOSHER NOT KHASHRUT TOO. UNLESS A RABBI of the Orthodox Branch strictly observe the preparation. Just Avoid, much happiness in observing G-d's commandment , please. Eat the correct kosher food that nurishes the body that keep the soul. Very Holistic Approach :) Don eat anything :)
9. Kosher or no , kids like it
charles ,   petach tikva   (05.22.07)
This was a great publicity stunt , and at no cost . Well done , also for their public relations , customer is KING ! their spokesperson said .
10. #6 wrong again wrong again, americans
Israbrit ,   Chag Sameach   (05.22.07)
London Beth Din Kashrut Commision NEVER declared the confectionery as non kosher. Only the VEGGIES were up in arms. KASHRUT WAS AND IS THE SAME. HOW MANY MORE TIMES DO YOU HAVE TO BE TOLD THE SAME THING? N.B. Those who only drink chalav yisrael didn't/won/t ever eat them anyway. End of subject hopefully!!! Chag Sameach

charles ,   petach tikva   (05.22.07)
Are you aware that many equiment can't be "kasherised" ? you have to replace .
12. death by chocolate
theviper311 ,   Hymie Town   (05.23.07)

ben ,   singapore   (05.23.07)
Of Course , now this is where Fiona Dawson, managing director of Masterfoods should get the OU Rabbis to advice. She should also read the book of Ruth for Shavout, and recognise the special time for Jews eating milk product and honey.May she have some blintzes, berries and kugel :) Anyway time to read Akdamut and tie red ribbons on the fruits. My fruit tree is full of fruits as usual this year too. Here there is a lake garden with fruit trees, the fruit trees are full of fruits. Shavuot Yom Habiikkurim my friend - read Tikkun Leil Shavout all night and drink milk and eat honey :) Everytime I see the fruits I remember the MANNA and the Law -Mount Sinai green and lush covered with flowers, grass and beauty of Spring Time :) see ya around Chrales : - )
14. ben , writing on Yom Tov
charles ,   petach tikva   (05.23.07)
Much happinness in observing god's commandement , you wrote . Is there not a little bit hypocrisy from you , you don't observe them . YOU SEND tb's on yom tov . So don't write G-d , you don't respect his commandements .
15. Poor Ben
Israbrit ,   Isru Chag   (05.23.07)
You take yourself so seriously. Please lighten up. We all make desserts and drink wine sweetman,but don't make the fuss that you do. A Mars bar , a pkt of Maltesers are little treats every now and again so please stop this ridiculous and sad philosophising. The cute part was the veggie versus kashrut, and even that was so minor, nothing more, so get a life and enjoy it but please no more about the culinary delights and ladies of singapore. That IS boring and that's really IS a sin.
16. How stupid is this
AllyH ,   United Kingdom   (05.24.07)
Ok, so they were gonna use rennet in their mars bars, hmmm strange that vegitarians would protest againts this considering if they eating chocolate they must eat cheese and other dairy products. Well they use rennet to make cheese dumb fools
17. allyh , UK
charles ,   petach tikva   (05.24.07)
Vegetarians EAT cheese and dairy products , you have not to kill animals for this . Those are vegetalians [ with L ] who don't do it .
18. Israbrit , regarding Ben
charles ,   petach tikva   (05.24.07)
You wrote on Isry chag , no problem , but he , always defending religion and so , did it on Yom Tov . But he , as always , will not respond to this , or maybe with insults .
19. Any day of the week, Charles, weirdos are weird
Israbrit ,   Isru Chag Israel   (05.24.07)
and there's another weird one in these columns too....a sort of 'turkish delite'. Ynet attracts these types, 'eyn ma laasot'. The articles on religion and converting etc, just shleps 'em out of the woodwork. Just scroll down and skip the strange 'poetry'-like stuff and leave 'em to it I guess.
20. Stop ANIMAL TESTING
Beth, Chloe n Nikki ,   blackburn   (04.15.08)
