The OU permits it for jam
First of all please post your source. (Commercial may be a different process)
Second of all, that's a lame excuse.
We all know the sad truth. - in the other seasons locations the customers have no problem purchasing and rinsing rasperries for consumption. This is why it is part of their inventory chain, and ends up in Lakewood.
They wouldn't be selling them if noone bought them. - And there ain't that many old ladies makin jam.
