Kosher Review

Kosher Private Regulation in the Age of Industrial Food by Timothy Lytton is brilliant account of the history and evolution of kosher supervision in America during the last century. This amazing work is one of a kind in its scope, and level of depth. Professor Lytton painstakingly researched his topic by reviewing a wealth of documents and interviewing scores of individuals. He leaves no stone unturned in an effort to present a scholarly, accurate and readable record of this era. And what an amazing story it is. At the turn of the 19th century, kosher supervision was riddled with corruption. The potential for profit and gain attracted unscrupulous individuals who fought against honest and sincere Rabbis who struggled to establish appropriate standards. It took many years of battle to remove supervision from the domain of opportunists. At the same time, food technology became increasingly complex, and supervisory agencies lacked the technical skill and professionalism that was inherently needed. Slowly, a new body of kosher agencies emerged, and sophisticated systems of supervision and management were developed. Professor Lytton beautifully presents a record of this entire process, and provides insight into the roles of the OU and other key players in this growing field. Professor Lytton has performed a great service in writing this work which records an important part of history which would otherwise be lost. This masterpiece is of value to both scholar and layman alike, and is required reading for anyone who wishes to understand and appreciate the field of kosher supervision.
