Of course the Haredi MKs and media are taking it personally and upset at her and at Kahane for her scoffing, even though really she is right. For the companies it is marketing to get these certifications even on products that dont need it because so many people have been brainwashed to believe they need hechshers even on such items.

The problem is that as far as I can tell, the proposed reforms will not solve this problem. These are almost always done by private hechshers such as the Badatz Eida Hachareiidis and others, and not by the Rabbanut. The reforms are going to give the private hechshers more power, not less, so I dont see how the reforms will put an end to this type of behavior. That being the case, if I am correct, she should not have been scoffing at it because the proposed reforms will not solve this issue and put an end to that absurd situation. If they would be putting n end to it, then she would be able to laugh at it and show how necessary the reforms are, but that is not the case.
