7.6.06 Update: By the way, Manischewitz came out with a yellow cake mix which is Pareve. If any of you try it, please let me know if/how it compares with the Duncan Hines mix.
11.1.06 Update: Duncan-Hines is taking the dairy ingredients out of their mixes, and they will once again be certified OU Pareve.
