If that were true, that would be a much bigger problem than the occasional oversight. They should have a contract with their supervised companies forcing a recall when a serious kashrus concern arises.
I don’t know whether it’s true or not. As I said, it was simply my guess. I don’t know enough about the OU’s policies and contracts or the economics behind whether or not the threat a mass recall would cause a company to reconsider whether or not to obtain a hechsher at all.
Also, aside from bb”c, many are machmir not to eat milk products which rely on the heter of chalav stam, so mislabeling a product is problematic anyhow.
I’m willing to bet that anyone who is machmir WRT cholov Yisroel AND looks at the ingredients (the first thing *I* would do if I saw something such as this) would know better than eat this.
