Kosher - Halal is acceptable to both Muslim and Jew - so i was told at a social awareness course in Saudi Arabia. The beast/fowl is bled before it dies - it's throat is cut.

they can do as the please over there but leave our meat alone were not a muslim or jewish nation

i went to caladonia in blackburn at teh weekend and next door is a mini market that sells halal meat an dvarious other products cheap and i saw teh chickens on display and they looked bloody awfull .I did however find mountain dew which is hard to find in teh uk so purchased 2 crates of it.

i will say though that the chickens tehre probably aint pumped full of teh crap asda and tesco pump tehir chickens up with but i get my chickens from the butchers its worth paying a bit more so you dont get a %50 water logged bird with track marks from the needles they inject the meat with

KFC isn't a state owned nationalised company.

If they think there's money to be made, from any particular market, they'll make it.

If profits suddenly plummet at Accrington's KFC, after the introduction of halal chicken, it'll be farewell halal, and hello Bernard Matthews.

accyman 22-04-2010 23:37

Re: No finger lickin' bacon in Accy.
 
well i didnt spend much there anyway so my custom wont be missed so if the rest of the local population wants to continue giving money and supporting a company that caters to a minority and ignoring the majority then more fool them for doing so i just hope the trend dosnt catch on to my local butchers.

mind you there may be a whiff of revese role going on because while KFC are stuffing halal meat down christians throats muslims are switching to bacon butties and to my amazement the other day at my local cineese ordering sweet and sour pork

theres simply no excuse for kfc to switch to halal meat theres plenty of places already where practicing muslims go to get halal products and those that arnt practicing muslims were eating at kfc way before teh switch

anyway since sticking £1.00 on to the price of a family bucket and charging for dips kfc can kiss my arse on those grounds alone lol

How did you know the people in the Chinese were Muslim, were they praying or something?

If profits go down, they'll soon 'switch' back.

Simple economics. Supply and demand.

I don't go there much either, perhaps once or twice a year, but I'm always impressed at the pious, God fearing, Christians you find eating in there, who've gone there straight fronm church.

your right i could be mistaken but the viel thingy worn by teh mother led me to believe they were muslim but it could have simply been prtection from volcanic ash fall out or they could have been buying it for tehir friends like many muslims buy booze for tehir non muslim friends from off licences

If profits go down, they'll soon 'switch' back.

no doubt they would

Simple economics. Supply and demand.

what demand i dont recall a big uproar from the poulation for halal meat

I don't go there much either, perhaps once or twice a year, but I'm always impressed at the pious, God fearing, Christians you find eating in there, who've gone there straight fronm church.

well now the mosque leaders can send there followers there too and they worship more than christians do so that shoudl make up kfc's loss of trade

Oh right, the 'mother' was wearing a veil.

Better not go out with my friend Sally, who happens to be a nun, in case you spot us, and wrongly presume myself as being Catholic, or another nun.

Well I Know that my Granddaughter and her fella used to go to KFC on a Wednesday because they both worked late on that day, but they refused to go when they changed the menu, maybe they'll go back now, but they may have got out of the habit now;)

Ya in fact Wyn there's nout much wrong with spending a few minutes in your own kitchen, with a few pots and pans and commodities purchased from ASDA then sitting at your own table eating good old home made grub:rolleyes:

can you 'half inch it' bring back BRAWN to those who know what it is - and serve it up at the local shop - aahh those were the days -
nothing wrong with the 'old' trotters and if we have to get German before 'the match'--
eisbens with sliced deep fried spuds and saurkraut (include Juiper berries - or else)
pork schnizels,- pork roulade in a mustard sauce - and the cheeks 00000h -
feeling hungry??
staple diet to our English heritage and probably what sustained 'the Empire' - most ordinary folks had a piggy.
maybe the effing burger was our downfall although prior to that it was the Frankfurter
so we can blame them both - the Yankie doodle dandies and the Danish invaders (oops I've got me finger stuck in the dam)
I'm off to get myself a bacon buttie (with a splash of HP sauce - yet another great Brit invention)
don't forget the apple sauce!

Re: No finger lickin' bacon in Accy.
 
jays- do people actually COOk these days - judging by the expansion of 'ready meals' that Tesco and the like devote to 2 to 3 aisles on the putrifaction and what I observe in the piled trolleys goin through the checkout the answer has to be NO.
why why why would anyone buy a 'ready' cottage pie???? or for that matter a spag bog-
- I'm not bragging but both dishes (including a really 'spot on' meat and tata pie) I can rustle up in less time that it takes to take the wrapping off.
your psychoanalysis on the subject will hopefully fill the missing gap.

Sadly your right Martin I do keep some ready meals in the freezer, (which reminds me better check the use by date) just in case I can't get a meal together. I think I eat fewer take aways now than I've done for years, used to have a couple a week, (for supper only) I haven't had 1 this year, in fact ain't had one since about last September

When will people learn that trying to appeal to a customer base on religious grounds just isn't going to happen, "Silk purses & Sows ears" come to mind here, they should just leave things be.
