Is it the first of April?

After reading this...

Muslims shocked to learn that crisps contain alcohol - Times Online

you might be forgiven for thinking so.

Is there no end to this ridiculous pantomime? The comments at the end of the article are worth reading too.

I hope that nobody thinks that is the end of it, alcahol use in foodstuffs I mean, it is a bit like the 'it's bad for you' messages, we wouldn't eat at all if we listened to all of them, rome and romans again I say!

Muslims aren't averse to profiting from the sale of alcohol though. They seem to own the majority of off-licences in this area. More than one of which has been prosecuted for selling to under-age drinkers.

The way i see it is that alcohol is against their religion and they have the right to know which things contain alcohol. We should respect their religion. When i did my first aid course the tutor used non-alcohol wipes on the practice dummy because there were muslim women present..

I think you are just being churlish, and 'tis pretty obvious that you thought our point was well-grounded, otherwise, you would not feel the desire to pontificate on it again ...

Will have to seriously think about this one ..

Should be taking fruit anyway .. not all that fried crap.

Perhaps Willow may wish to step in with this one too .. sorry Willow not getting at your beliefs, just genuine question ?
