Does anyone know of a butcher or supermarket selling Halal meat (specifically chicken) in the Clayton/Rishton area? Thanks
 
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.
 
They never used to scrape the raw chips along the floor then wrap them in newspapers so far as I can remember Eric.
:)

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.:cool:
 
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.

 
Just had my late breakfast, Two sausages,(Pork), Two rashers of Bacon, (Pork)
Two Hash Browns and Two Eggs, (fried in the fat of the sausage and Bacon).
:alright::alright:

A more than happy Taddy.


What! No black puddings and fried bread!

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.

To be politically correct should that not read, (coloured) puddings and fried bread? Just asking,;);).

By the way, my good lady is down town at this very moment purchasing some (lean),coloured skinned puddings, (I'm not fond of the fatty ones).:(:(.

Your's, Taddy
 
By "tainted" meat I imagine you mean his religion doesn't allow pork products?
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.
 
Some Halal accreditors allow stunning, there was something in the Telegraph about it with the Nandos opening in Blackburn.

" Cllr Mulla, a former Blackburn with Darwen Mayor, phoned Nando’s head of customer engagement, David Manly to warn him the London-based Halal Food Authority accreditation used by the company’s suppliers was unacceptable to the LCM.

The HFA allows the stunning of chickens before slaughter, which Cllr Mulla and his organisation believe fails to meet the strict criteria of Islamic law.

The LCM insist on accreditation and inspection by the Leicester-based Halal Monitoring Committee which forbids it. "

If I was contributing to a Jacobs join which had members who needed halal food....I would take crudités and dips.
I have to say that when I worked at QPH we provided a bit of a feast over the Christmas period.....and though food acceptable to Muslims was available, many of the docs would eat anything and everything.
OK this is more than a decade ago.....maybe Muslims are more devout now.
