Kosher scanner
What's in your hand?
Scan a barcode in the aisle. We tell you who certified it, where we read that, and when we last checked — or we tell you plainly that we don't have it.

How to read this
Nothing here is a hechsher. This is a record of what certifiers have published, transcribed by us with the source and the date attached. The symbol printed on the packet in your hand is the thing that counts — a manufacturer can change a formulation or lose certification between production runs, and the pack will show that before any database does.
“Not in our database” is not “not kosher”. We only say a product is certified when we can name who certified it, where we read that, and when. If we haven't recorded something, we say so — we are not in a position to declare a product uncertified because we happen not to have looked it up.
Records go stale.Anything we haven't re-checked in twelve months is flagged as stale rather than shown as current, because certificates lapse.
The database currently holds 0 products. It started empty on purpose and grows only from certifiers' own published lists — plus what you report, once we've checked it.
Product names and ingredients from Open Food Facts, used under the Open Database Licence. Crowd-sourced and unverified — not a kashrut source.Its “labels” field — where a member of the public can type the word “kosher” — is never read by this app.
