From reader Dub Not Dubya,

Hi Sheila, I'm enjoying your blog as usual, so thanks for a great site. You might want to remind interested readers that it is Passover, and thus the kosher (i.e., sweetened with sugar) Coke is available again. I found plenty at the Stop & Shop on Branch Avenue last night. You could just link back to your post about it from last year if you are so inclined.

Also, I know you often recommend online games, so I thought you might be interested in this site that just came online recently:

http://www.gamingforcharity.org/

It has many Flash games, and the proceeds from the site go to various charities. It's modeled on sites like the Hunger Site but the donations come from the ads that are on the page when people are playing the videogames. It has many of the typical favorites, and it's nice to be able to help good causes while playing.

All best,
Dub

Our kosher Coke exchange began in the comments on that 2007 Passover recipes post. Corn is not kosher for Passover, so Coca-Cola makes a special version this time of year with real sugar.

Kosher Coke has yellow cap printed with a Hebrew phrase and the OU-P symbol; its ingredients list sucrose rather than high-fructose corn syrup. (This is the Coke you may remember from childhood -- many people prefer it to today's Coke.)

Note that the Shaw's on North Main Street is no more, but other Shaws markets probably have it.

If you crave this year-round, the scuttlebutt is that Mexican Coke is also made with sugar.
