RKYHS students were privileged to hear from Rabbi Menachem Genack, the esteemed rabbinic administrator of the Orthodox Union’s kashrut division and rabbi of Shomrei Emunah in Englewood. Rabbi Genack oversees the certification program of some 4,500 food production facilities in 68 countries around the world. In connection with parshat Shemini, which discusses the laws of kashrut, Rabbi Genack spoke to the students about the fascinating topic of “clean meat,” meat grown in a lab from animal cells and the many halachic implications. Students and faculty enjoyed the eye-opening talk about a very current topic.
