Reply To: OU kashrus is not reliable?

I think their concern is that people will think DE needs only be treated as milchig as a chumra, or that the only problem is actually cooking it with meat.

Maybe they shouldn’t put a hechsher on anything milchig or fleishig, in case people think that if it’s kosher you can mix it with anything else kosher and that basar b’chalav is only a chumrah.

For that matter, maybe they shouldn’t put a OU-D on Thomas English Muffins, since the shulchan aruch says it’s assur.
