1. Kosher Appliances:

t's easy to spot the kosher consumer in a supermarket aisle.  When you see a shopper turn a product from side to side, for no obvious reason, chance are you are looking at a kosher observing individual looking for a familiar symbol that would deem the product kosher and fit to be eaten by one keeping Jewish dietary laws.

2. Stove Top: Dissemble parts. Thoroughly clean surface and parts with steel wool, soap and water. Reassemble. Ignite fire to high for a few minutes.
3. Microwave: Clean thoroughly. Put glass with a few ounces of water inside. Turn microwave on high to boil water. Let water vaporize into steam.
4. Refrigerator: Thoroughly clean with soap and water.
