Quote:
The former owner of one of the nation's largest tomato processors pleaded guilty Friday to running the company as a racketeering enterprise that bribed purchasers, fixed prices and doctored lab tests of moldy tomato paste.

I remember reports like this way back in the days when those government regulations were made public that ALLOWED a certain percentage of rotten tomatoes in sauce and ketchup, and, the most popularized, the rat feces in hot dogs.

I guess this company was just over what the regulations allowed.
