Author Topic: Meat from Argentina - Rav Levine (Read 3999 times)

To all people that live in Israel (or that otherwise know):

There is a famous meat order that happens every so often in pretty much all charedi areas. Meat comes from Argentina, with supervision from Rabbi Levine.

Does anyone know anything about the kashrus of the meat? I know a lot of people order from there, but does anyone know something? Do you know Rabbi's that eat it?

I spoke to a rabbi that is known for his kashrus expertise, and he told me that although he's heard great things, he cannot recommend it (based on speaking to the mashgiach (or maybe rabbi levine himself), and having sfeikos/questions by the end of the conversation).

It does. The more I hear people saying that, the "better" I "feel".

If you decide what you east based on anonymous posters on online forums. Stop convincing yourself that you're makpid and machmir. Just eat it and know that you're relying on a bunch of anonymous screen names.

Why is it anonymous? I personally know some of the members here...
