[Avodah] Kosher meat in a non K Butcher Shop

[Meir Rabi]

I would appreciate your thoughts re the sale of Kosher meat in sealed marked
packaging to be sold in non-K butcher shops.
Is there a concern for MAyin?
Is the opportunity for new customers to purchase K meat or purchase it more
easily a valid argument to introduce this 'new' alternative?
If we already accept pre-packged K meat in the supermarket, why should a
butcher shop be different?
How different must a K product be from a similar or identical non-K product?
For example, if a company has been persuaded to manufacture a Kosher run of
a food which is otherwise not K, and the K version is identifiable only by a
letter of digit alongside the 'use by date', how concerned must we be that K
shoppers will inadvertently purchase the non-K look-alike?
