Lakewood oilum that "isn't makpid about kashrus" go to Cleveland summer camp!!!
"Lakewood isn't makpid about kashrus?"
That's right! That's why the Cleveland camp has no kashrus hashgocha, no pas-yisroel (only on shabbos) , etc.
Do you eat at home all that they are serving in the camp? NO!
Don't throw your children to the sharks.

Alert: Unlabeled canned goods, becomes labeled with a Hashgocha? CALIFORNIA DELIGHT AND DELIGHT BRAND ITEMS
Kashrus Alert: Unlabeled canned goods, becomes labeled with a Hashgocha?
Most hashgochas do not keep a log of traceability for canned goods. Therefore when a packer purchases unlabeled canned goods at a good price & puts on his own label with the Hashgocha, the item is to be considered as non-certified kosher, which most kosher consumers will not accept.
It's alleged that the Delight Company (California Delight) or any other name they may use is a packer that purchases on the open marked "unlabeled canned goods' and labels them with labels that have a Hashgocha.
Of Course you'll find some of their product with a code that indicates a hashgocha, but a lot of the product is bought unlabeled & sold in areas where people don't check for codes.
Isn't it of interest that he is always cheaper, never runs out of product.
There may be others that are doing the same and the kosher certifiers via AKO should address this serious weakness in the system. Kashrus must be traceable from farm to fork.

Kashrus Updates and Alerts:
Red Bull drink was a non-acceptable product (CRC Chicago list) from a kashrus point.
Recently, a reputable kashrus expert from the USA, instituted changes, now the ones sold in the USA with a Hashgocha are acceptable.

Dr. Pepper soda remains as a non-acceptable drink from a kashrus point, due to an ingredient in it, and there is no Bitul.Sunday, June 16, 2024

A Cardinal Halacha is שמוע בן אחיכם
DE JA VU !!!!
We have recently seen again a letter signed by numerous Lakewood Rabbonim that may very well lack the cardinal rule of שמוע בן אחיכם.
That invalidates every one of the signatories from ruling or commenting on any of those issues.

Cause and Effect
תניא: 'רבי יוסי בן אלישע אומר: אם ראית דור שצרות רבות באות עליו - צא ובדוק בדייני ישראל, שכל פורענות שבאה לעולם לא באה אלא בשביל דייני ישראל,
אמר רב פפא: אי בטלי יהירי - בטלי אמגושי אי בטלי דייני בטלי גזירפטי;
אי בטלי יהירי - בטלי אמגושי, דכתיב (ישעיהו א כה) [ואשיבה ידי עליך] ואצרף כבר סגיך [ואסירה כל בדיליך];
אי בטלי דייני בטלי גזירפטי - דכתיב (צפניה ג טו) הסיר ה' משפטיך פנה אויבך [מלך ישראל ה' בקרבך לא תיראי רע עוד] .
אמר רבי מלאי משם רבי אלעזר ברבי שמעון: מאי דכתיב (ישעיהו יד ה) שבר ה' מטה רשעים שבט משלים?
'שבר ה' מטה רשעים' - אלו הדיינין שנעשו מקל לחזניהם;
שבט משלים' - אלו תלמידי חכמים שבמשפחות הדיינין.
שבט מושלים = מקל אגרופין של מושלים, היינו דיינים רשעים שתלמידי חכמים שבמשפחותם להם למקל ולאגרוף: שעל ידיהם היו מעמידין אותן, ומחפין עליהם, ועושין סניגרון לדבריהם
מר זוטרא אמר: אלו תלמידי חכמים שמלמדים הלכות ציבור לדייני בור.
אמר רבי אליעזר בן מלאי משום ריש לקיש: מאי דכתיב (ישעיהו נט ג) כי כפיכם נגאלו בדם ואצבעותיכם בעון שפתותיכם דברו שקר לשונכם עולה תהגה?
'כי כפיכם נגאלו בדם' - אלו הדיינין;
'ואצבעותיכם בעון' - אלו סופרי הדיינין
'שפתותיכם דברו שקר' - אלו עורכי הדיינין;
'לשונכם עולה תהגה' - אלו בעלי דינין.
