What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

A federal court order was issued following an investigation by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. The order established a consent decree against Gold Star Distribution, Inc., a Minnesota-based warehouse operator, and its owner, Bassam Abu Samrah. The decree prohibits the company from receiving, holding for sale, or distributing food due to persistent insanitary conditions, including severe rodent and pest infestations, that put regulated products at risk of contamination with filth.
