Already in the 1980s Rav Blumenkrantz wrote a krechst that he wishes that at least the heimishe shgooches should stop allowing that secretion of the lac bug that make the cordials nice & shiny.
We put up huge resistance to the shgoochos back in the 80s because the insect spittle elongates the shelf life of the products. If we are afraid of losing a few customers that zicher overrides any kashrus concern! And if there is a substitute ingredient in 2024 that is kosher it has to be just as billigeh price as the lac because why should we lose a few cents revach?
What else does Mrs. Shain hold? Does she have an opinion on kli eitz he'asuy lemalos?
