The Te'uda is not Mehadrin, and the employees told me it's not Mehadrin (which I know doesn't really mean much).
Your'e saying that you spoke with the Mashgiach, and that he told you that the aforementioned are Mehadrin?
correct, the tuedah doesnt say mehadrin, but if you call the number - and could be things changed since april - he will tell you what is what...thats why i check every time...
also, dont ask the employees - just ask to see the bags...
as far as free guesting, i spoke with PP and they said its an amex promo...called amex and they said they couldn't find any info so i think either it doesn't exist or I'll have to squeeze more info out of PP
