“If you want the authentic taste of the Real Thing, you need to buy the Jewish Thing.
“In the US, where cheap high fructose corn syrup has been used instead of sugar to sweeten American Coke since the drink’s relaunch in 1985. Corn is a grain, so Coke isn’t kosher L’Pesach. The company responded by manufacturing a limited quantity of Kosher Coke, sweetened with sugar, in cans and bottles with “OU-P” or “Kosher L’Pesach” printed in Hebrew on a yellow cap. Kosher Coke is only available during March and April in areas with high Jewish populations.”

Itzik; You took the words right off my keyboard.
I am not commenting on this individual case; however I suspect that ZOA possibly did not consult daas torah, and it is true that Coke is owed a certain Hakoras hatov. (Kofie Tov is what got Amon/Moav kicked out for good).
PS I once had to listen to the headline speech of either WZO/UJC and in a whole hour Hashem was not mentioned ONCE!!

Joseph is the bad non-zionist. If there are any problems he is around to be blamed by certain commentators. Especially if its a zionist problem. Even if he didn’t make any comments. Who else is there to kick around on a boring day (if its one of those rare days that nk is not on yw)?
