Shalom and blessings. Questions concerning kosher meats here in the Virginia area, we buy our meats in Maryland (kosher Shalom) - my question is concerning the animals feeding, we do not know what is the standard of diet for these animals, are kosher animals such as cows for example, suppose to grase on grass alone, or can they eat grain foods? And if they cannot eat grains, then is the meat still kosher if they Do eat kosher? What about antibiotics? What about the treatment of the animals? How can we ensure that these establishments that claim glat kosher are Really kosher ? I did ask the rabbi at this location about the animals feeding and he wasn't knowledgeable at all. What do we do ? Blessings.
