Hello, I am writing this in regards to the health and safety of the public concerning the food that some of us may or may not of eaten. I recently worked for a company by the name of Butcher's Choice Meats Inc. Their headquarters is in Novi, MI. They are a door-to-door meat sales company specializing in price gouging and fraudulent business ethics. I am concerned with the food that is being put out there in the public and the way it is being put out there. This company does not aquire door-to-door sales permit's, nor do they sell the quality of meat that they claim to be selling. I am no just a disgruntled employee for the reason I left wa because I just could not sleep at night knowing what I was doing for a living. When you see the costomers faces and their kids faces, you get a sick feeling in the pit of your stomach. The food that we were given to sell was less than satisfactory. As salesmen, we were trained to pass it off as choice steaks that are found in resturants such as Applebees, Outback, and Red Lobster.in fact, We were even trained to tell the consumer that as well.in all acuality, the food being sold is barely fit for a dog. My suspicions arose when one day I came home on lunch. I had no food in the refrigerator, so I went out to the truck and got a couple of steaks (Butcher's Choice Steaks) from my freezer on the work truck. I cooked them for lunch. While cooking, they got a green tint to them as well as shrunk and smelled very horrible. I gave them the benefit of the doubt and tried one. It was the nastiest tasting thing I had ever tasted. I couldn't even choke the rest of it down. I asked a co-worked (someone who has been with them for many years) why the steak tasted so bad. He told me not to eat them, just sell them. If I need steaks for home, Ask the manager and he would give me some steaks that they had purchased from another supplier. This is when I noticed that everytime we had a company cookout, Butcher's Choice Meats Inc. Would always supply us with steaks from somewhere else. My guess is the grocery store. They looked completely different as well as tasted great. We were trained to tell the consumer that the steaks were all 100% USDA Choice steaks.in all acuality, Only one box is and were passed it off like all of them were. I am not even sure the rest of the boxes were even inspected. They would give a 100% guarentee for 1 full year fom date of purchase also. This guarentee was actually only 3 days (as long as the law requires) but the people thought they were getting a year. It was even printed on their flyers. Another aspect of their company is the prices. We were trained to mark up the steak, chicken, and seafood by up to 200%. This was easy to do because like I said, we convinced the consumer that the were buying choice steaks and we also said we would give them a box of 110 chicken breasts for free. (Yeah Right) We just used the 110 chicken breats to help with dividing the cost per steak. Anyways, I later went online and searched for more info pertaining to this company and I found that they did the same thing in Toledo Ohio. I will attach the file that I found on that. Well I hope this spawns someone to do something about this. We need to let this company know that this won't stand in Illinois.
