JACQUELINE ALEMANY CBS NEWS April 8, 2016 "Kosher" Trump Vodka Lands In Hot Water
Well, apparently neither does the kosher liquor company that Donald Trump rented his name to.
Trump Vodka, the product of yet another licensing deal under Trump's name, was founded in 2006 and distributed by a company called Drinks Americas, the Jerusalem Post reports. Despite the Trumpian catchphrase "Success Distilled," distribution of the drink came to an end in 2011.
But when an independent importer saw an opportunity for the drink to enjoy a fruitful afterlife in Israel, Trump agreed to a new deal allowing H. Pixel International to distribute the Trump-branded booze in the Holy Land.
But according to the Jerusalem Post, it turns out that some Trump Vodka was made with chametz, a leavened food product forbidden on Passover, and not made with a grain alternative, such as potatoes or molasses.

You’re doing what you’re criticizing, altura. You’ve been doing it obsessively for months. You’re a Cruz supporter constantly posting negativities about Trump.
Again, you are doing what you’re criticizing. To pretend otherwise only makes you look silly.
Trump University? Trump Taj Mahal? Trump Shuttle? Trump Steaks?...
Trump White House!
Okay. There are a lot of negatives about Trump and I probably posted to some of them.
But I don’t personally attack posters or come on threads posting nonsense posts refering to sleazy Trump or lying Trump.
We all have our candidates. So what’s your point?
Realize that you’re not even remotely immune to the behaviors you condemn, alter. You’re doing the very same thing, and that fact is not lost upon those who read these threads in which you participate.
Never trust Lyin' Ted - or a Steelfish Thread!
This will surely destroy Trump’s campaign. :-)
Never trust Lyin' Ted - or a Steelfish Thread!
AMEN!
OR a thread that has altura spreading venom!
I notice you did not meet my challenge to go back and find one ... just one ... Trump supporter who said anything positive or made any attempt to excuse Trump in this behavior.
They all just unloaded their usual array of Cruz insults.
You all need to get some new words ... ‘lying’ and ‘sleazy’ have been overused and have now lost their meaning.
That’s what I was thinking. Now I’m not Jewish, but I seem to recall that items which are “kosher for Passover” must adhere to more strict rules than items which are just “kosher”.
In fact some soft drinks companies, particularly Coca-Cola will produce a special formula for Passover using sugar instead of high fructose corn syrup. It is identifiable in two-liter bottles that have a yellow cap imprinted with Hebrew characters.
It’s the only time of the year to get real sugar Coke if you don’t have ready access to Mexican Coke.
Just another useless post that does nothing to bring pertinent information. However it does show that both side post useless articles.
Say what you will about Bob Dole, at least he had the dignity to resign from the Senate before running.
If something has Trump’s name on it and is a success, it belongs to Trump and he deserves the credit. If something has Trump’s name on it and doesn’t succeed, it’s someone else’s fault. Trump is a winner!
Thank you genius, you try brushing up on your reading comprehension. I said that it has a negative impact on Trump’s name, but Trump himself was not running that business. He takes a hit, but it isn’t directly his fault as he isn’t running the business.
I think you missed the point of what I said, which doesn’t contradict anything you said.
Rereading, Yes and No. I can see how it is similar but not. You said that if it has Trump’s name it is a failure, it is someone else’s fault. I said that if it has Trump’s name and it is a failure, he takes the hit (being at fault), but in reality it is not. Similar but not the same.
Heh. Well played.
I don’t think they can find any stories showing Lyin’ Ted to be a principled man anymore.
Cruzbots can only ape Saint Ted who is trying to rebrand himself and dump his Christian schtick in order to fool people in the Northeast.
>> Monkey business does NOT count!!
LOL
