What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Sunkist Fruit Gems were discontinued in May after a recipe change violated kosher law, according to a report by eJewishPhilanthropy. Following a national outcry, Ferrara Candy Company announced it would bring the candy back to shelves using a new family-owned manufacturer. The company stated the new process maintains the original flavor, quality, and kosher certification.
