The (U) ("U" in a circle) mark is a trademark of the 
Union of Orthodox Jewish Congregations of America. It is the symbol of
the KASHRUT DIVISION of the aforementioned organization. It specifies
that the product (and the company) have undergone inspection(s) that allow
the product to be certified as KOSHER. These inspections are in general 
performed by rabbis appointed by the Union. Since the symbol is a trademark
it cannot be used without prermission of the Union.
