Gourmet Glatt Rolls Out Kashrus Safeguard for Instacart Orders Gourmet Glatt has launched a new kashrus safeguard for customers ordering through Instacart: every shopper filling an order at any Gourmet Glatt location now gets an in-app notification instructing them to have all fresh meat, deli, fish, sushi, and other freshly prepared items boxed and sealed with kosher tape (kashrus seals) by department staff - before checkout. Shoppers are directed to ask the department, not handle the sealing themselves. The move follows concerns raised over the summer about third-party grocery delivery, where orders can spend time unsealed in the hands of a non-Jewish shopper between store and doorstep. Gourmet Glatt's own delivery fleet already boxes and seals every order; this extends the same standard to Instacart. This is a new initiative and we are making it better every day! Just in time for the Yom Tov rush, customers needing quick or last-minute shopping can order with confidence.
