I could be having a comprehension deficit moment, but why were these "furious parents" taking their "terrified children" to a FROZEN MEAT DEPARTMENT to look for Halloween costumes and decorations? I never considered a frozen meat to be either a costume or decoration.

I have never seen a market where the meat counters were in a separate room. The meat counters are no different then the vegetable/fruit counters, except for refrigeration. It is quite normal and logical that kids with mommie are going to pass the meat department, and see what is in the low counters/bins.
The whole story is a bit overblown, but I can see how some people/children might be a bit put off.
Employes in costumes, or funny posters would be more appropriate.
