[Avodah] Kosher

[martin brody]

Indeed they are, in some cases. Nobody claimed differently. But this is a
non sequitur. The poster was specifically refering to cans of vegetables
steamed in China with treif fish.
LBD categorically state that all canned, tinned, bottled vegetables and
beans etc.including tomato products are kosher if packed/cooked in brine,
water, or vegetable oil. Same goes for fish too, by the way.
Check mate.
