Kosher Supervision Agency Removes Endorsement Of Sex Lubes

"As reported in the media, the Rabbinical Council of California’s Kashrut Division was in the final stages of certifying  products produced by Trigg Laboratories. Certification of non-edible items is common in the kosher industry, but the intended uses of these items as now revealed, was misunderstood. The RCC has rescinded its certification with immediate effect, and deeply regrets the widespread consternation that this error caused."

The JTA thinks the RCC pulled it hechsher (supervision) when it found out the lubes are popular in the gay community and that some of them are made specifically for use in anal sex. I would add that even heterosexuals commonly do things with their mouths that rabbis don't like, even though the actual halakha – as opposed to Kabbalah and hasidut – permits them to be done.
