Not Kosher for Passover
**Not kosher for Passover.** Kars is a brand of 100% pure corn syrup (glucose syrup), which is kitniyot (legumes/grains like corn forbidden by Ashkenazi custom during Passover to avoid chametz confusion). Even if processed to remove chametz, its corn base makes it inherently non-kosher for Passover under standard Orthodox and Conservative certifications—no Passover-specific hechsher exists for it, per kosher guides like OU and Star-K. Sephardim might permit kitniyot but still require certification.
