Kosher Food IssuesI'm not interested in gossip concerning the recent scandal involving non-kosher chicken (and possibly meat) being fraudulently labeled and sold as kosher.
Clearly, sad as it is, there is always the potential that this could happen.
What I am most concerned about is whether those certifying food as kosher are properly trained to ensure that fraud of this type is prevented. It is important for the observant Jewish community to have confidence that those providing certification are committed to implementing the necessary safeguards, and that they only employ people of both competence and integrity.
