Reply To: Is the vaad the mafia??

Why should this lady pay for a machgiach when she’s know more that he does. She grew up in a very frum home and knows how to keep a kitchen kosher. Why should she pay some guy who goes out on a cigarette break every half hr? We should be able to trust the rabbis of our communities if something is kosher or not. Do you need the vaad to tell you if you can eat in someone’s home. So why should the vaad tell you if you can eat in a restaurant run by a very frum woman?
