    They switched to another very reliable hechsher that other popular restaurants use and is easier to work with. Nothing to see here folks. Keep moving along.

    The Bible for recommended hechsherim, CrC from Chicago, who list hundreds of hechsherim doesn’t have Rabbi Melman listed. If I understand correctly ,many kashrus agencies don’t rely on him. He operates with different policies. He allows stores to be open on Shabbos. I am not sure why they would take such a hechsher.
