A Hanford meat-processing plant under investigation for animal abuse has lost more customers.

According to the Fresno Bee, Mcdonald's and the USDA have stopped beef purchases from the Central Valley Meat Company. The USDA bought 21 million pounds of beef last year from the plant for the school lunch and other programs.

Fast food chain In-n-Out has also severed ties with the plant. It's not clear if or when the plant will be allowed to resume processing meat.
