To add to the Chalav Yisroel discussion, Rav Ruderman ZT”L held that dehydrated milk is l’chatchila Chalav Yisroel and Ner Yisroel would serve OU-D food made with dehydrated milk.
@AviraDeArah Back? I never left! I think that other Rabbonim only agreed to Rav Moshe’s psak as a heter, and they argued on his view that it’s l’chatchila. I don’t think any of his talmidim claim that it’s a heter.
@coffee-addict I’m not sure what to take from that story. Obviously you viewed things one way, but I don’t know the precise circumstances, nor the people involved, to say that it’s an indictment of MO Yiddishkeit. I mean, there are plenty of very public controversial piskei halacha and hadracha to choose from.
