At Last: Kosher at All NY Airports

By Margie Pensak

Catching a red-eye flight back to JFK after a business meeting in Los Angeles? Landing in Newark at 5:50 a.m., after a 12-1/2 hour flight from visiting the grandkids in Israel? Leaving for LaGuardia too early to eat breakfast before going on that long-awaited Saint Martin Island vacation?

Have no fear, Fresko Green Label is here!

Now the estimated 1.5 million kosher travelers who fly domestically and internationally from JFK, LaGuardia, and Newark airports, annually, can avail themselves of a large variety of kosher prepared food options packaged under the Fresko and Yummy Sandwich labels, under STAR-K Kosher supervision.

No longer do you have to subsist on pretzels and candy that, thankfully, are marked with a reliable kosher symbol!

The STAR-K certified Fresko/Yummy Sandwich menu includes items such as: grilled chicken salad, southern honey BBQ chicken wrap, fresh roasted turkey sandwich, Cajun turkey sandwich, grilled chicken shawarma wrap, herb grilled chicken sandwich, tuna salad on greens, tuna salad wrap, tuna fish sandwich, grilled tofu wrap, organic quinoa salad, layered Capelli D’Angelo salad, Greek feta wrap, shaved fresh mozzarella sandwich, classic egg salad sandwich, and yogurt parfaits. All breads are Pas Yisroel; all dairy items are Cholov Yisroel.

These menu items can be found, Sunday through Friday at these locations:
