Someone asked:
> When was there ever a kehillah that were all makpid on glatt,
> despite holding that non-glatt was kosher al pi din? ...

R' Micha Berger answered:
> Who do you think immigrated to the US after the war, set up

> the older ones, and thereby made glatt the norm here in the US?

If I'm understanding RMB correctly, yes they were "makpid on glatt", but that hakpada was not for religious/kashrus reasons (but to be free of mafia infiltration). Thus it is not a useful example for the discussion.
