What's fraudulent about it? It's voluntary. If this label means the price
of the product goes up, then surely there must be a competitor who is able
so sell a similar product unlabeled for a lower price.

And if you seriously object to your food being kosher, you're free to
boycott it if you like. I make a habit of boycotting a dozen companies
ranging from supermarket chains to oil companies for a variety of reasons,
but I don't go around posting drivel about it or demanding that everybody
follows my example. Especially not with the more ludicrous reasons.
