Rabbi Menachem Piekarski of the UMK kosher certifying agency told Anash.org that corrective measures are being taken.

“Chewy Lemonhead & Friends manufactured by Ferrara Candy Co. bear an unauthorized UMK. The only Ferrara products certified by the UMK are Atomic Fireballs and Jawbusters/Jawbreakers, any other items are not certified by the UMK,” he said.
