A Baltimore Scoop follower reports finding several bugs in a package of barley purchased at Seven Mile Market.

The exact brand has not been confirmed, so shoppers are encouraged to carefully check their barley before using it, especially with Sukkos approaching.

STAR-K recommends checking barley before use. Their guidance is to place the barley in a white bowl, cover it completely with water, let it sit for 15–20 minutes, and then inspect the surface of the water for insects that may have floated to the top.

If you recently purchased barley, take an extra moment to inspect it carefully.
