ConAgra Foods, Inc. (NYSE: CAG) released the following statement on Tuesday,
in response to a class action lawsuit that calls into question the kosher
status of its Hebrew National products.

Hebrew National products are kosher, and this lawsuit is without merit. Hebrew
National’s kosher status is certified by a well-recognized and authorized
third-party. There is close rabbinical supervision of the food preparation
process and packaging equipment. For more than 100 years, Hebrew National has
followed strict dietary law, using only specific cuts of beef that meet the
highest standards for quality, cleanliness, and safety with no by-products,
artificial flavors, or artificial colors.
