This blog was created to address the issues caused by the "It's Kosher" certification of products and establishments as well to address the erroneous and misleading statements made by Rabbi Meir Gershon Rabi on his "It's Kosher" website.
The authors of this blog are individuals within the Melbourne community who feel an injustice is being committed to our community in the misrepresenting of Kosher products and production. Despite the claim that the "It's Kosher" certification gives the consumer wishing to observe kashrut more choice, many in our community feel that the leniencies employed by "It's Kosher" are based on an erroneous interpretation of halacha. This is in fact causing the Kosher consumer to purchase products of dubious kosher status.
