Newly released inspection reports reveal that several Boar's Head deli meat plants have chronic sanitation issues, including instances of meat residue, mold, and insect infestations, highlighting significant operational concerns.
Federal records show that the problems at the New Castle, Indiana; Forrest City, Arkansas; and Petersburg, Virginia plants date back roughly six years, and violations echo concerns linked to the Jarratt facility.
Boar's Head officials acknowledged that the violations at the three plants 'do not meet our high standards,' yet the company continues to operate under normal USDA oversight.
The U.S. Agriculture Department's release of inspection records follows Freedom of Information Act requests, revealing alarming sanitary conditions, including blood residues and unidentified slime, throughout multiple facilities.
