KFI report on lechem ubasar
http://www.jerusalemkoshernews.com/wp-content/uploads/kfi-Report-lechem-basar.pdf
I'm confused. What's the point of this report? It's just stating the standards of the hashgacha. You could get that info from the mashgiach?
Life isn't about checking the boxes. Nobody cares.

Still no report on Sheyan and Keyara.  And KFI was officially closed, due to the fact that they realized if they are not the ones giving the Hashgacha, they have very little impact on any changes.

I believe it was a couple weeks ago, after they checked out a few Rabbanut Mehadrin places.

It was a few places, I think Ricotta was one of them. Though I may be mistaken.

Rabbi Kuber told me a couple months back, that he's heard they have a very good Mashgiach. But he's sure they use products he wouldn't recommend (I. E.Aguda, and C"S Petach Tikvah) And Rabbanut Mehadrin Yerushalayim today is not much of a Hashgacha, so you are dependent solely on the Mashgiach.
