Subway removes pork from stores after 'strong demand' from Muslims | Mail Online
*Subway removes ham and bacon from nearly 200 stores and offers halal meat only after *strong demand' from Muslims
*185 branches across UK and Ireland now sell halal-only meat
*Halal refers to objects or actions permissible under Islamic law
*Pork is forbidden and while other meat can be eaten, it must be sourced, slaughtered and *processed according to strict rules
*Subway said all halal meat served in its branches has come from animals that were stunned *before being slaughtered
*Halal-only menu is in response to 'strong demand' from Muslim customers
Fast food giant Subway has removed ham and bacon from almost 200 outlets, and switched to halal meat alternatives in an attempt to please its Muslim customers.
It has confirmed turkey ham and turkey rashers will be used instead in 185 of its stores, where all the meat will now be prepared according to halal rules.
The chain, which has around 1,500 outlets across the UK, explained its decision by saying it had to balance animal welfare concerns with 'the views of religious communities'.
Traditional halal slaughter sees animals have their throats slit before bleeding to death. But Subway stressed that the meat served in its sandwiches would come from animals that have been stunned first, a practice that aims to reduce any suffering.
In Arabic the word halal means 'permitted' or 'lawful' and defines anything that is allowed or lawful according to the Qur'an.
It is often used to indicate food - particularly meat - has been prepared in accordance with Muslim principles and techniques.

Does not matter which country, liberals are utter pieces of shit. Yes, I blame this sort of utter shit on liberals too.
