Question: Why do we need a filter on Orange Juice? Don't they all, except for Tropicana, have "Heimishe Hashgachos"?
New Square Orange Juice, Lakewood OJ, Golden flow OJ all have Heimishe hashgachos.
What is going on?
Is Tartikov Bais Din a bunch of swindlers or are all the heimishe hashgachos chazir treif?
The Bugger Rebbe from Flatbush namely The Magrover claims that everything we consume has bugs especially fruits & berries ...
ReplyDeleteSimple answer is: Bug off ... !!!
Tell them to clean their glasses and get the bugs off.
ReplyDeleteAll jokes aside, this is what's going on.
ReplyDeleteCitrus peels have scale insects that are considered visible according to everyone that if you scrape one off with your finger & eat it you are oiver 5 issurei deOraissah.
When you make your own juice at home the bugs do not get in the juice.
When factories make juice they squeeze the peels into the juice to give extra flavor to it, releasing some bugs.
There is a machlokes Achronim if these bugs are still considered visible lehalacha when inside juice.
The Magrover did not say that exactly. He said that he used to be on top of all the emerging information years ago on infestation but has lost his touch by not continuing to follow information on infestation trends so he therefore warns that anything under him that could be infested should be considered infested. He did not want to take the achrayus that someone ate a bug because of him so he announced he is now on par with all the other lousy hashgochos who always fed everyone bugs lechatchila.
ReplyDeleteActually I'm surprised these chumra-niks dare to even get out of bed in the morning, let alone open their mouths to breathe. They must have true problems in their personal lives if they have to displace them with worries about possibly swallowing an 'invisible' insect, and what a terrible impact that will have on their holy souls.
ReplyDeleteWeevil
The bugs when inside OJ are not invisible it is just a shayla if they are 'invisible' for halacha purposes. When you pull them out they become assur according to everyone. When they are still inside the OJ the Chazon Ish & others asser them. Other poskim do not asser them.
ReplyDeleteSo "Weevil" who appropriately names himself after a species of insect is drinking bugs in his OJ whether they are assur or mutter
Next is the filter for the strawberry yogurt with the hechsher of the Magrover Rav.
