Here's the latest Orlah update, so you can shop for fruit in Israel with confidence!

FRUITS AND VEGETABLES in Israel - Specific Kashrut Issues
Unlike in other parts of the world, in Israel, fruits and vegetables are NOT automatically "kosher" - here we need to make sure that they are not "orlah" fruits (harvested during a tree's first 3 yrs, with other rules applying to year 4) and that trumot and ma'asrot have been taken (from both fruits and vegetables). Without these basics, these fruits and vegetables are NOT acceptable in a kosher kitchen!
If you shop at a market that doesn't have an ishur kashrut (kosher certification) on their produce, you'll need to investigate these issues further, if you are interested in adhering to the halachot of the Land of Israel OR if you regularly host people who assume the food in your home is kosher! I must say that it's important to familiarize yourself with these special halachot, as they are part of keeping kosher in Israel! (If you say you keep Kosher in Israel, everyone assumes that you have taken care of these issues; and if you don't, then you may be unwittingly putting someone in a situation they don't want to be in!)
It's definitely possible to take trumot and maasrot on your own (I do it often), so vegetables are easiest to buy without a teudah, as that is all you need to do (and very often, it would be without a bracha). Some of the fruits on the market may be ok to purchase even from a non-certified establishment and just take trumot and maasrot, because of the extremely low percentage of orlah fruits being sold, but those lists change frequently, so you'll constantly need to stay up-to-date.
Other fruits can be a problem, because of orlah (from the first 3 years after the tree was planted). I try very hard to post a monthly update here on my site with a list of the fruits where the percentage of orlah fruits on the open market is greater than 0.5%. These fruits should only be bought from a reputable source that does not sell orlah fruits (i.e. a place with a teudah). This orlah issue is a serious issue for kosher consumers:
ORLAH Update for Iyar 5779
Fruits to AVOID buying without a teudah:
- Avocado - Haas and Reid varieties
- Blueberries
- Peach (Omer, White)
- Grapefruit (White)
- Olives for curing
- Olives for oil (Barnea)
- Lemon
- Apricot (large red. Ra'anana)
- Nectarine (Red, White, Gali-Binyamina, Snow -red speckled, Yellow)
- Grapes - SBS 125+, oval green grapes, red, dark red, Big Pearl green varieties
- Pitaya
- Papaya
- Prickly Pear (Sabra Fruit)
- Plum - large yellow, green-yellow
- Oranges - Choice Valencia
- Starfruit
- Passionfruit
- Almonds
- Figs
Please be sure to speak with your personal Halachic Authority about purchasing fruit in Israel without a teudah. Not everyone holds by the 0.5% threshold, and there are differences of opinion about certain fruits and whether they are subject to Orlah. This information is just for informational purposes and is not a halachic psak! Even if you follow a psak that relies on the 0.5% threshold, you still must take trumot and maasrot on all produce grown in Israel (or be sure it has been taken), in order to fulfill your halachic obligations.
Also, be aware that this list does NOT apply to fruit grown by an individual. If your friend has a fruit tree, you'll need to find out how old it is!

FRUITS AND VEGETABLES in Israel
Unlike

if
you are interested in adhering to the halachot of the Land of Israel OR
if

must say that it's important to familarize yourself with these special
halachot, as

everyone assumes that you have taken care of these issues; and if you

It's
definitely possible to

Other

I was passing by the makolet, and as I approached, I had few hopes of finding anything good on the sug bet rack.
From afar, I saw mostly empty boxes, as the top layer of boxes was deceptively empty.
When I got closer, I found full boxes of produce, stacked at ground level instead of on the racks. Some of the produce was not useable at all, but I managed to pulled out plenty of decent produce in the end!
I know I said I was sort of doing a pantry challenge, but I am always ok with buying some fresh fruits and vegetables (especially fruits!!), especially when it's a great price, and we can either use them this week or prep them and freeze for some other time!
Here's what I got for a total of16.70 NIS:
The breakdown is (approx weights):
850g artichokes (4 of them)
600g assorted peppers
200g not-yet-ripe tomatoes
2 kg cauliflower
200g carrots
900g kishuim
140g pears (actually 1 pear)
250g shesek (loquat)
290g lemons (2 lemons)
180g fennel
1.2 kg peaches and a nectarine
1.3 kg eggplant
And now, I must go fit it all into the fridge (except the tomatoes) until I get back to them later!
Have you found any deals this week that were too good to pass up?
