Which Jackson/Lakewood Kosher supermarkets sell Organic Girl leafy greens (like Spinach)?

Will I only find Organic Girl leafy greens in Shoprite type supermarkets?

Organic leafy greens are usually heavily infested with bugs even when triple washed and very hard to clean so don’t be surprised if kosher stores don’t carry them. On the plus side the tolaim do provide extra protein Smile

Ive been buying this in "Heilig of Heilig" BP, on 13th/49th for years. I wash and check well, and use it without a problem. Once in a blue moon, its no good.

Check with a light box, soapy water and put the water through a thrip cloth and you will often find that this brand is infested. It’s seasonal so you wont find all the time but definitely more than once in a blue moon.

I dont think Organic Girl has a Hechsher, just like the many brands of Romaine lettuce that all the frum stores sell, that are known to be buggy as well. You must check it yourself.

I think youre confusing it with Bowery that went out of business recently..

Afaik for the last 10 years Organic Girl never had a Hechsher at all!

Im talking about organic girl. they sold them in lakewood with a hechsher but kcl in lakewood made a whole big shpiel that they arent good and you shouldnt buy them (politics) so it stopped being sold in the stores. I did look into the hechsher and even called up the mashgiach and we came out that it is good...

Thats weird. I bought it in Brooklyn for years and I never saw a marking about a Hechsher.
