One hundred and twenty attendees were addressed by OU leadership, including newly appointed OU Kosher Chairman Dr. Josh Penn and prominent Rabbis.<\/p>\n<p>Rabbi Elefant said: OU Kosher is the most recognizable kosher certification in the nation. Our clients are proud to bear the OU Kosher symbol. A luncheon with <em>gedolei Yisroel <\/em>is an appropriate way to honor the people who help make that possible.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rabbi Genack concluded: \u201cOur <em>mashgichim<\/em> are the backbone of OU Kosher.
