Memory serves, Snapple labels used to have a “K” printed on them denoting it was a Kosher product. I note the “K” is no longer there. Is Snapple no longer Kosher?

A “U” in a circle is the most common “plain” Kosher certification mark in the US, last I checked. Is that symbol present?

Checking their Wiki article, it looks like some idiots used to claim that a [K on the label meant it was either owned by the Klan or had a “Jewish tax” with it](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snapple#Rumors_and_myths).
