Rubashkin's Under Federal Inquiry
Postville, Iowa - An internal report from the Agriculture Department has found that Rubashkin's Kosher Meat Plant, the country's largest producer of meat certified glatt kosher, violated animal cruelty laws and that government inspectors not only failed to stop the inhumane practices but also took improper gifts of meat from plant managers. Also, some of the plant's 10 inspectors made faulty inspections of carcasses, failed to correct unsanitary conditions and were seen sleeping and playing computer games on the job, said the report, by the agency's inspector general.
