Israeli issues are indeed harder.
Demai is a concept that makes certain assumptions about how Amei Haaretz behave and, at least, take
it to MidRabanan level where oter kulos are available. Are any similar concepts used in modern Israeli practice? Did it change over time? After all, a median agricultural worker in 1950s was an anti-religious kibutznik who would “bite like a horse” while now a median food worker (not including machines) is a traditional Marokai, who may not be up-and-up on all Ashkenazi minhagim and humros but respects religion and knows basics. At worst, he might add some rice into kneidlach.
