Perhaps it was a Consumer fraud issue? to assure that the consumers
were really getting Kosher food when it was so advertised?

According to the story below, NY has decided to nix its Kosher
inspectors as a way of spending money. Does anyone know the details
(and citation) for the 2004 case mentioned in the article? Also, I am
wondering what precisely the inspectors after the decision. Finally,
does anyone know why the inspectors were set up in the first place?
Why wasn't the issue simply solved by having private kosher audits by
reputable bodies? The idea of a state Kosher inspector just seems
perverse and unnecessary to me. What am I missing?
