Beef and Chicken Flavor Bouillon Cubes, under the name “Spice Classics” are incorrectly labelled with an O-U, despite containing chicken and meat ingredients. These are being sold at our local Marc’s. The O-U has been notified and corrective action is being taken.

what does corrective action mean? I am so sick of hearing those empty words. what they need are punitive actions and PREVENTATIVE actions.
how can we continue to trust these agencies that issue dozens of ‘corrective actions’ a week?
to be truthful, sometimes the transgression has nothing to do with the hashgocha that is used, but plenty of times, the company is authorized to use the symbol, but not on that package. Hashgocha has to start cracking down and say-misuse my symbol, and we are out. despite the loss of revenue. better to lose revenue, but gain trust.
I am curious if I am the only one who feels like this.

so two days after its on localjewishnews, the OU decides to put out an alert about it.
i hope that the coirrective actions being implemented work, but i am doubtful.
