Hellmann's Mayonnaise Garlic, listed as approved Parev on p.84 of The Really Jewish Food Guide 2010 now contains Cream Powder and is therefore Dairy. Old stock which does not list Cream Powder in the ingredients declaration is still approved Parev.

New flavour Tic Tac Cherry Passion is Not Kosher as it contains E120, Carminic Acid.

Kara Coconut Milk Original + Calcium contains Grape Juice and is therefore Not Kosher.

Baby foods Ella's Kitchen The Indian One and The Italian One were previously approved Parev but were subsequently discontinued. Since their recent re-launch, they are produced in a non-kosher factory and are therefore Not Kosher.

We would like to draw your attention to the following kashrut alerts. All page numbers refer to The Really Jewish Food Guide 2010.

Recent batches of Dorset Cereals Berries & Cherries Bars and Fruits, Nuts & Seeds Bars, listed on p.34, have been mis-labelled 'KLBD' instead of 'KLBD D'. They are still Dairy and include 'unsalted butter' in the ingredient declaration.

YAD VASHEM PAGES OF TESTIMONY



Over the past 50 years, Yad Vashem has been working to recover the names of the six million Jews who perished in the Holocaust. To date only about 3 million names are memorialized in Yad Vashem's Central Database of Holocaust victims.

To commemorate and bear witness to the lives of our murdered brethren, Yad Vashem has created what they term, Pages of Testimony. These forms were created for registering the names of those who perished in the Holocaust. Each Page of Testimony contains a victim's name, biographical details, and a photograph when available.

Millions of victims remain unidentified and Yad Vashem has put out an urgent call to the World Jewish Community to recover their names through a worldwide Names Recovery Project. This is a race against time, before those who remember the victims are no longer with us.

Our Society realises the great importance of the Names Recovery Project and feels that we are in a good position to publicise this project for the foreseeable future.

You can help in various ways:

The first thing everyone can do is to check their own family trees and identify any Holocaust victims. If we have Holocaust victims on our tree, we need to ensure that a Page of Testimony has been filled out for each and every person.

The second thing we can do is to mention the Names Recovery Project to everyone we know, especially to those who might not be involved in genealogy, but who may have Holocaust victims in their families.

Thirdly, because we genealogists are good at capturing 'Vital Data', we could help others fill in the Pages of Testimony.

The steps one needs to carry this out are as follows:
1. Identify the name of a Holocaust victim.
2. Check the database of Holocaust victims names, which is available on line, to see whether a Page of Testimony has already been filled out for that person or child. Remember that unless someone has specifically filled out a Page of Testimony for a particular person, it will not be in this Database. The Pages of Testimony Project was started in the 1950s so one may find a record for a family member already filled in and submitted in the 1950s by another family member, friend, or neighbour of the victim.
3. If no record is found in the database, fill in a page or each and every person and submit it to Yad Vashem, either on line or by regular mail.

The Database of Holocaust victim's names can be accessed via the Yad Vashem website at
www.yadvashem.org

Blank Pages of Testimony forms with full instructions on how to fill them in can also be downloaded from the same website.
