Kosher Cannabinoids

Kosher means food that complies with the strict dietary laws of traditional Jewish law. Kosher is more than health or food safety to Jewish persons. It is about adherence to tradition and reverence.

The three Kosher categories are as follows:

• Meat (fleishig): mammals or fowl, as well as products derived from them, including bones and broth
• Dairy (milchig): milk, cheese, butter, and yogurt
• Pareve: any food that is not meat or dairy, including fish, eggs, and plant-based foods

Kosher tradition prohibits serving or eating meat and dairy products together at the same meal. As well as that, all equipment and utensils used to process and clean meat and dairy must be kept separate - even down to the sinks where they're washed.

Although CBD is a natural plant ingredient, it requires a hechsher (kosher certification) as soon as it is extracted from the plant, according to all Orthodox Jewish rabbinical sources. In other words, even pure CBD oil would require kosher certification, as well as gummies, chewing gum, flavored oils, and other edibles.
 

A fruit, vegetable, or grain product (including hemp/cannabis) must not contain insects or insect larvae contaminants. All forms of insects are explicitly prohibited. Hence the reason that all of our Sababa CBD products receive Kosher certification.
