Once again Israeli peppers are being seen for sale at Walmart. This time the orange peppers were a mixture of Mexican and Israeli grown.

The OU has a helpful article explaining how to separate terumos and maaseros.

There were some reports on Friday that Walmart shoppers had noticed that the peppers being sold were grown in Israel.These of course cannot be eaten unless terumos and maaseros have been separated. It is not known which varieties or packages, but it is more likely to include the red, orange, and yellow varieties. In previous years, we have seen Israeli Clementines and peppers at many area grocery stores (Israeli peppers are more common in the winter season). Also, look for Israeli Jaffa oranges that are being sold with an O-U indicating trumos and maaseros have already been separated.
