Products Which May Be Used for Pesach Without Special Kosher for Pesach Certification (except where noted otherwise) A new box, can or jar should be used where an old one may have come into contact with chometz. These are very partial lists, for Pesach 5781 / 2021 only. The omission of any specific brand or product does not necessarily imply that it contains chometz or that it is not permissible for use on Pesach. This list refers only to U.S.-manufactured products. Products manufactured in other countries, including Canada, even with the same brand names, may have different formulations. ** Products that are marked with asterisks: These products are not certified for Pesach by the OU. Nonetheless, the OU has identified these products as Halachically acceptable for infants and those who are ill. They should be purchased before Pesach and should be maintained segregated from Pesach foods, and their utensils should not be washed in a Pesach sink. ALCOHOL: Isopropyl ALMONDS: See NUTS.
