That's just not true, except for perhaps a few towns where there are a lot of Jews. I've lived here for over 40 years, and have NEVER seen such a thing.

Where it's not true, observant Jews will patronize a kosher butcher instead of the supermarket.

[television is just wrong]

I am not jewish and will patronize the local butcher, kosher or not. I like the nice prompt service.
