Indeed, though I suggest you watch them taking in their deliverys before purchasing, I have seen chicken delivered in plastic bread baskets and slid along the floor where the customers often stand hardly an advert for hygiene is it?

They never used to scrape the raw chips along the floor then wrap them in newspapers so far as I can remember Eric.

I called into a petrol station, on Burnley Road today,

(no names mentioned, as I don't want the politically correct police giving me a call), but as well as the fuel, for which I originally stopped off, I bought a packet of liquorice and Blackcurrant sweets that were classed as Halal

(come on, how can you cut the throat of a live blackcurrant).

Your's as ever, be happy, Taddy.

Yeah ... but back in the day who gave a rat's ass ... you are going to put the suckers in the deep fryer, that should solve the health and safety problem.

If you don't want Halal, stick with Porky products or their derivatives mate!

Its the same as that so called organic food, just a big con game to put th price up, who the ell can monitor every food producer on this planet, or even know how their doing, some idiots will fall for any thing.

I believe Asda and Tesco sell halal meat, look for the letters HMA (Halal Monitoring Authority) on the packaging.

.

I don't know about liquorice and blackcurrant sweets - I thought they were just boiled sugar - but a lot of confectionery contains gelatin and other animal derivatives. I think that anyone who can only eat halal meat probably can only eat halal derivatives too. Someone at work was halfway through scoffing a cupcake before realising he hadn't checked if they were suitable for vegetarians, not because he is one, but because it's the safest way to avoid so-called "tainted" meat.

BTW thanks, everyone, for the replies. I'll try Tesco in Great Harwood later.

By "tainted" meat I imagine you mean his religion doesn't allow pork products?
For those of us that enjoy food we follow the Chinese philosophy, I'll eat anything with legs except the table.
