The "KSA" which resembles hebraic symbols is of a near orthdox as well as a Chabadic nature in how the product is prepared. One thing to keep in mind -- is that if you are looking for Kosher products, there will also be either a "D" next to the symbol or the symbol by iteslf. A "D" indicates dairy which means that as per the Laws of Kashruth, the product should not be used where the dish may be of a meat product because milk and meat should never mix. I've studied and compared the similarities of Kosher/Halal for years but if the product contains any shellfish such as oyster shell, then the product will never have any kind of a kosher mark on it. And yes, I am Jewish.

If that milk has a Kosher symbol on it, indicated by a "K", then that does not contain anything from animal sources which means that it should be fine. I will be making a new post about Kosher products, especially which categories can be used by Muslims. Thanks for your comment. Walaikum Assalam,
