Gatorade apparently kosher in Canada without hechsher – most FlavOUrs

An anonymous Bachur had asked the OU (Orthodox Union) if the Gatorade in Canada is Kosher (as the OU places a Hechsher on most US-based Gatorade products), and where to find them. This was their answer:

Grape flavored and powdered Gatorade can only be used when bearing an OU symbol on the label. The other flavors can be used even without an OU Kosher symbol on the label.”
