gunter said:The killing yards in the US are isolated from the eyes of the general populace
Years back I worked as a consultant for one of the US Auto Mfgs. I needed to inspect a truck and the driver worked at a slaughter house up in north central PA.

I get home about 3 hours later and my sweet wife cooked steak for dinner...........Moooo
