Reply To: You see a product from Israel with some Rabbis name on it

The problem is that there are so many different opinions, and so much politics, that it’s hard to know who to trust. For example, I don’t rely on Triangle K in America, but there are people who do. In Israel someone might tell you that a hashgacha with a similar status to Triangle K is acceptable, but you have no way of knowing whether it conforms to your standards. You just have to find someone you trust who lives in Israel, and ask them. Unfortunately, not all of us have such a contact. You assume that just because you rely on certain hechsherim that I should be able to as well, but you don’t know whether our standards here in America are the same, so you have no rightful basis to assert that.
