Considering the long days that Mashgichim put in and the hundreds of miles that they drive daily, it is no surprise to hear that most mashgichim rely on coffee to keep them going. While caffeine is a plus for those who work in an office, for those out on the roads those 10 minute coffee stops are quite literally life savers. Let us take a moment to understand if there are any kashrus concerns with picking up a coffee while traveling on the road. This question was presented to the OU poskim Rav Schachter and Rav Belsky.

Since 1927 the National Federation of Coffee Growers of Colombia, a non-profit organization, has represented the interests of more than 500,000 coffee growers in different areas through the commercialization process. One of the steps taken to increase the awareness of 100 percent Colombian Coffee® was to develop one of the most advanced plants manufacturing Freeze Dried Coffee in the world. Buencafe®, formerly Freeze Dried Coffee, has been helping not only the most demanding customers in the industry to build brands and products for more than 35 years, but works to improve the livelihood of the community of coffee growers.
