yydl, while you are right in that there are hundreds of acceptable hashgachos, you have to admit that OU definitely certifies the majority (or at least the plurality) of certified mass-produced products on the American market. – Tzvi Jan 23 '11 at 0:24

Some of the boxes have an OV on them which is the Vaad Hoeir of St. Louis

I live in St. Louis, and I'm pretty sure that the O-V is universally accepted here, for what it's worth. Here's contact info: ovkosher.org/a/contact – Isaac Moses Jan 20 '11 at 15:34

And if this helps anyone, the cRc has the OV on its "list of common acceptable kosher symbols": crcweb.org/agency_list.php . As always, CYLOR re whether you should accept any particular hashgacha. – msh210♦ Jan 20 '11 at 16:29
I live in Connecticut, and my wife came home from shopping with a box of Hospitality Apple Whirls that have a V in a circle(the O-V) with "Pareve" below it. They taste just like Apple Jacks, and only a buck a box! – Gary Jan 12 at 2:37
