cherrybim “hello99 – You are misleading the CR readership because you make implications and assumptions and present them as definitive fact.”
Funny you are doing the same thing here-
“It’s all baba meisa, no hashgacha needed for soap or sponges. But once you have hashgacha for one brand, it creates the status quo.”
I proved that the kashrus agencies hold there is a difference between hand soap and soap or dishwashing hand liquid/ soap sponges. I also found that they seem to hold that the powder or liquid going actually into the dishwasher doesn’t need a hechsher because it’s sufficiently strong that it’s poison. But it seems that all seem to hold that what you hand wash your dishes with- needs or should be kosher as opposed to body soap or actual dishwashing machine powder. Hence all the hechsherim on those liquid dish detergents. You might not have meant this in your above post, but you are misleading people!
