There was a little tumult here in America as well, before Pesach, when a major Kashrus Organization said that a “green house” company under a different Hashgacha in fact DID have bugs in them. But of course the PC crowd poo poo’ed it & like all “questions” regarding a Kashrus Organizations, it was swept under the rug! In my humble opinion, only the Major Org’s can be trusted, like the OU, OK, CK, Star K, etc…

Greenhouses can be just as bug infested as fields, sometimes worse. The only difference is that you can control the greenhouse: it’s cheaper to pump it full of pesticides and more expensive to use have airlocks and positive pressure entrances and floating row-covers. So there are people selling stuff that either is poisoned with levels of pesticides that they wouldn’t eat themselves, or selling produce that need both maaser zera’im and maaser beheima. Disgusting.

Is there no greenhouse grown, bug free, pesticide free, unwashed (because it doesn’t need it) lettuce sold anymore? Pulling out of Gush Katif should not have meant that nobody else could build a greenhouse and grow bug free lettuce.
