I would imagine it was a financial decision to do it and a PR decision not to announce it.

That PR decision was wrong and will cost them dear.

No he did not need to there

Yes

"selling halal meat: "Give us secular supermarkets!" closeronline.co.uk/2014/05/katie-… Hokins"



Trust Katie to get on this

No it won't cost them dear. Not everyone's taken in by divisive stories trying to demonise Muslims. Most people have no clue and no interest in how the cow is killed to make their hamburger. All this story was meant to do was to fan the racist flames so that Muslims get the bad press. No wonder they didn't make a big deal about telling everyone.

The chicken is dead. No one really cares how it was killed... unless it's killed in a Muslim way, then people are a bit outraged.

Its not just the Media
its word of mouth , now

No but many are

Yes. And many more just stir it for badness.

The ignorant customers they will lose will be replaced by pleasantly surprised Muslims who now know they can eat there without any doubts. :hugesmile:

This is an interesting comment from a fairly decent if liberal article about the issue from the Grauniad

"Personally I do not object to eating halal meat provided the animal was stunned before slaughter, which is allowed. The bigger problem is with kosher meat, which is never stunned. This is an animal welfare issue not, as doubtless The Sun wishes, one about ethnicity.

However, animal welfare issues must always have precedence over those of religion. Religion, and the way in which you decide to practice it, is a choice. The animal being killed has no choice and has a right to be killed painlessly."

Sun readers go to Pizza Hut anyroad

Sure

You are a disgusting individual, resorting to taking personal digs at people because you are desperate for someone to agree with you. This thread is about Halal meat. :nono:

Not if Pizza Hut is near their building site

"to provoke outrage"


Yes

Visit an abattoir. Then we'll talk about animal rights.

The comment is interesting only because it's both poe-faced and ill-informed. Stunning is being used more and more widely in kosher slaughter.

Anyhoo, this isn't a discussion about kosher meat, and frankly after the performance over my religion last night, no way am I engaging in a discussion about it with an atheist who's kicked off yet another furore over religion.

It seems the media have got bored of talking about people on benefits so now it's the Muslims turn to get a kick-in again.

I think only Vegans and Veggies have a real right to comment on this, coming from meat eaters it just seems pretty hypocritical. The Subway one was different because they were actually replacing the meats.

Its a comment from the guardian you doughnut :hugesmile:

What did I miss about Judaism last night?

Yes a Great Paper

Yep

Ahhh just some nonsense.

No Thats in Africa
soon

Yeah, I wouldn't think many real Muslims would regard what they're doing in Nigeria as reflective of their religion at all. But that's another thread....

Blimey this thread has taken a few turns way off topic.
