Yeah I guess the seeing it killed bit wouldn't be too good. Was just thinking about how different completely fresh meat would taste and now I quite badly fancy some beef :laugh:

Yeah, my boyfriend's family has pigs and chickens on their land, they buy them when they are young and then give them a good life until they are ready to eat them, it's just how they have always done it and they know that they are eating fresh and clean meat with no toxins or anything like that.

It probably does taste better though. All the animals are brought up healthily too, no dodgy hormone injections or anything

I remember vegans and vegetarians sharing this image that read along the lines of "would you buy meat if it told you what day the animal was slaughtered on?" and it massively backfired because people were in general agreement that it'd be a great idea because it'd let us know how fresh the meat was.

But what if it made them taste LOADS better... ... like the best thing you've ever tasted?

Consumers have a right to know exactly what they are buying and that's that, there's no arguing that fact IMO. And no, people that aren't on special diets due to health or religious reasons etc should in no way have to ask beforehand exactly what it is they are purchasing.

If Halal food had a bunch of added ingredients and was in anyway different I'd agree but as it is, it's exactly the same.

"Oh guys, this chicken we're serving to you is exactly the same as previously except the chicken was killed under different circumstances".

"Oh **** a brick, I'm not eating that!".

And LOL at the response..mine probably would have been similar

Am I being really dumb if I ask if the only difference between the way that the meat is prepared is in the way it is slaughtered?
How would anybody know??

Sense. It speaks.

Vicky. 08-05-2014 11:41 PM

Does anyone else type halala instead of halal or is it just me? Everytime I type it I do the same thing...

Kizzy 08-05-2014 11:46 PM

Marsh. 08-05-2014 11:55 PM

Its Normal.

Its good you see things like that

Make's you are stronger human

I'd rather know personally,I do think we have the right to know where and how the meat we are eating is prepared.
However I rarely eat meat and I will only have Chicken if I have cooked it myself or someone I know has done.

I don't have any problem with halal meat or other ways of slaughter. I would dare bet that many 'mistakes' occur in so called 'humane' abbatoirs.

Well how do we know that vegetables are organic, or chickens are free range, or salmon is responsibly sourced, or beef is British or E numbers are contained within? Labelling gives the consumer choice, and that goes for every consumer not just the non Muslim ones :D:
