ore than 100 shoppers
took home more than
just groceries from the
Farmer Jack supermarket
they visited in West Bloomfield on
April 24.
A diorama of a kosher kitchen set up
at the end of the store's kosher food aisle
provided an intriguing way to introduce
shoppers to various aspects of keeping a
kosher home.
Volunteers from the Lubavitch
Women's Organization, along with
Lieber's Kosher Food Products, spon-
sored the Kosher Day event.
Besides trying kosher food samples,
Farmer Jack shoppers were given
brochures on keeping kosher and infor-
mation on a challah-baking class.

Youngsters received games and coloring
books.
Those who viewed the small, kosher
kitchen display saw a model of what a
kosher kitchen can include.
"There were separate dishes, pots,
burners and counters for dairy and for
meat," says Miriam Amzalak of Oak
Park, one of the volunteers. "And all of
the food has kosher symbols," indicating
its conformance to standards of kashrut
(laws of kosher)
Marsha Trimas of Farmington Hills
took home Spice and Spirit: The
Complete Kosher Jewish Cookbook by
Esther Blau, a prize she won in a free-to-
enter raffle.
"Two lucky families took advantage
of a 50 percent rebate offer, for up to
$200 of the cost of koshering (making
kosher) their kitchens," Amzalak says.
"This will cover some of the cost of new
dishes and koshering old vessels."
For interested groups, the Lubavitch
Women's Organization can provide
speakers to discuss kashrut. Rabbis and
teachers will make home visits to answer
questions and provide help in making a
home kosher.
Now it is easier and more conven-
ient than ever to maintain a kosher
home," Amzalak says. "Kosher meats are
available in kosher butcher shops. Many
prepared convenience foods, canned,
frozen, baked or boxed foods, bear some
symbol of kashrut supervision and are
available in thousands of supermarkets
throughout the country." ❑
For information on keeping a kosher
home, or on the rebate offer; which will
remain in effect indefinitely, call
