It is no secret that all the chicken used in our dishes is halal slaughtered. Our teams in restaurants have and always will provide this information, and in addition it is available on the customer service section of our website. We are looking at whether we take steps to make this information even clearer through our menus. We’re committed to high animal welfare standards and as such the birds are stunned before slaughter. The quality, safety and integrity of our products is paramount and our chicken supplier is accredited by the British Retail Consortium. This means it meets the global standard for food safety. None of our other meats are halal. my bold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tipex Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 My brother said tonight that he wouldn't shop at M&S because of one of their meat products being halal. My brothers a well educated person, earns a decent amount of money and socializes with other groups. I questioned him on why he didn't like the thought of eating halal. His response ''It's' Britain and don't want that shoving in my face. How would other groups feel if we shoved stuff on to them?'' My personal thoughts on this are that I don't care. I want to know my meat is clean and safe to eat regardless of how it's done. I know my kebabs are Halal and my first thoughts are ''Is this kebab shop clean'' I don't care about anything else.

Guest Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 On one level It makes no real difference to me whether the meat I eat is Halal or not, but given that this is not a Muslim country, on principle I don't think Halal should be the default food.

Alien52 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 If the animal is killed using the usual animal welfare standards i.e. stunned before death then I do not see a problem if someone has said a prayer,that would be the same as a christian saying grace before a meal,both delusional but with no effect upon the meat. Having said that I am quite happy to eat meat from animals that have been shot so may have suffered pain before death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

melthebell Posted May 8, 2014 Author Share Posted May 8, 2014 It does in the states, halal and non halal are served in the same restaurants. well move there then? ive no idea why theres a difference then personally speaking im not a muslim and i dont use subway so no idea on the nuances however instead of others just ranting off without any proof i did do some research, that included the use of the little H for halal icons i have heard that halal stores dont stock pig products, but like i said ive never been in a store and seen for myself so i wouldnt know? but for the sake of being honest and truthful if somebody could visit a halal store and a none halal store and post the differences in the menus that would be good as for the pizza express one, only the chicken apparently is halal so it is none halal and halal in the same stores, my missus says mark little (ex of neighbours) had a little rant about it, but it only involved the use of chicken on pizza and it shouldnt be allowed lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
