No, I mean any sort of meat that I usually eat. I'd have thought that anyone who eats halal meat does so for religious reasons (what other reason could there be?). Therefore any meat not prepared in this way would be classed as tainted to someone with those beliefs. I'm happy to be corrected if it's the wrong word.
I've had a bit of a lucky escape in that the "Jacob's join" for which this was necessary is not now happening. I thought halal meat was just slaughtered, hung and butchered with prayers playing in the background. I didn't know that the animal was killed without being stunned. I won't be offering to cook in the future.
What's galling is that many supermarkets are supplying halal meat without labeling it as such, just because it's cheaper that way.
