Kosher Egyptian French Fries - in Israel

We don't hear much about trade between Egypt and Israel, besides natural gas. But it is happening, even with the cold peace between the two.

Yerushalimey sent me pictures of a brand of frozen French fries at his local grocery in Israel.


When he looked at the back, he saw something unusual:


It is made in Egypt.

Not only that...


It's kosher!

French fries require certification, since they get fried during their manufacture and the oil must be kosher as well as the equipment. (Chances are the oil used in this brand are kitniyot, which is why they are only kosher for Passover for Mizrahi Jews.)

Which means that  some Israeli rabbi or rabbis must be traveling to Cairo to verify how the fries (or chips, if you prefer) are manufactured. 

Of course, now that I published this, there's a danger that Egyptians will start attacking the manufacturer and accuse it of "genocide," which is becoming the go-to response for anyone who deals with Israel in any way.
