zahavasdad – As a long time FR resident and a mispallel of the Rabbi you smear – SHAME ON YOU. You have NO IDEA what you are talking about.

First of all, the 5T Vaad sets its own standards.

The Vaad ranges from YI to Chabad to Agudah, so they ‘meet in the middle” on certain things.Rabbi Yosef Eisen – OU bug expert and administrator or Kehilla Kashrus – is the administrator. That means he makes sure that the restaurants comply to the standards SET BY THE VAAD. He does not make policy.

The Rov you are talking about has higher standards then the other Rabbonim do. This is not the forum to discuss why.

ITS HIS CHOICE, we live in America. So as he has said COUNTLESS TIMES, he tells HIS MISPALLELIM which of the establishments meet his standards. These are recommendations FOR HIS KEHILLA. if you want to follow them, fine. if you don’t fine.

Oh by the way, he does not solicit establishments. He only visits an establishment IF HE IS INVITED BY THE OWNER.

He DOES NOT CHARGE ANY MONEY FOR THIS SERVICE, I dare anyone to say otherwise.
