In a startling revelation, a bag of Kosher L’Pesach lentils (kitniyos, permissible for Sephardim during Pesach) was inspected by a mashgiach at a hospital in Northern Israel, only to uncover numerous kernels of wheat. The lentils, certified by Badatz Beit Yosef and another kosher supervisory body for Pesach, were intended for use during Yom Yov. The Mashgiach says he checked the lentils five times. The Badatz Eidah Chareidis, which provides year-round certification for the product, explicitly states that the lentils are not certified for Pesach and must be thoroughly checked before use. This is why people do not eat Kitniyos and helps you understand why many people use almost no processed products to ensure strict adherence to Kosher for Pesach standards.
