Subway ban Bacon and Ham
Sadly some people have/do come here to troll, especially in threads like this, and I guess it just takes a little while for some people to figure out who is genuinely interested in discussing topics, not just looking for an argument.
I wouldn't take it personally.
It's probably just that I've been here longer and these guys know me/what I'm like.

This meat carry on is getting massive now
Even headlines about This meat
Enough to make you want to be a veggie
I was brought on on a farm and remember helping cut a pigs throat a horrible painful death for it but i still like meat but only from my local quality butcher
I would imagine people are going TI really think about meat now and slaughter techniques

Hello, Shaid. The "Christian thing" is going perfectly, thank you; I feel deeply blessed and humbled to have been elected to follow Jesus Christ. I'm still going to church, in fact the pastor is coming around for a coffee in an hour or so. Christians are not forbidden from eating pork - thank God!

Sounds like it, anyway.
Drat! I was just about to open a non halal butchers and reap the profit from everyone that's boycotting Tesco, Morrisons etc. I can't be having you natives turning muslim or my whole business model won't work.
It's quite worrying that some people thought it was serious though.

I totally agree. If parents are on drugs, can you blame the kid going on Halal???
IMO Daily Mail need to get some pictures with his parents "chonging on a bong and stuff and behaving strangely" to develop another cracker of a story.
We should credit right source though>>>>>
See what you've done, News Thump?

Is a black ribbon attached to a car offensive to Westerners or is it purely a luck symbol.
Or is it a luck Symbol that has been hijacked in the manner the EDL hijacked the St George Cross?

The last thing we want is a bad job to have been done and it look stupid.
That reminds me of the time, purely for my own amusement, when I was being deliberately vague towards my (spaced out) mate...
I 'asked' him, "Weyland, do you like hamsters?" To which he paused for a bit, before replying all annoyed but quite serious, "I don't like any animals with gnawy teeth!"

You'd've pissed, JT.

Some 185 of the estimated 1,700 Subway stores in Great Britain and Ireland have eliminated ham and bacon from their menus in response to requests from Muslim consumers.
The world's largest sandwich chain said in a statement that after strong interest from its Muslim customers, these locations
have introduced "halal meat" as a replacement, which is prepared under strict Islamic rules.
As Subway has spread geographically across diverse populations, back in 2007 the chain put in place a program "to ensure that the population demographic is taken into account when new story openings are considered," the company said, in a statement.
There are currently no plans for stores serving halal meat in the U.S. market, a spokesperson says.
Muslims are forbidden from eating any non-halal food and meat from pigs, and Subway said customers can identify those stores selling halal food by the special "All meats are Halal" sign, displayed in the participating restaurants. The signs are on menu panels, nutritional information panels and front windows of the store.
Special meats made with non-pork products -- such as turkey ham -- are being sold instead.
Under Islamic law, pork is forbidden and while other meat can be eaten, it must be sourced, slaughtered and processed according to very strict rules.
Subway said all halal meat served in its branches has come from animals that were stunned before being slaughtered.

Ha, only got 14 pages last time,a full page of extra rage this time. Maybe that shows things are getting worse or maybe it shows I am reading in to it to much.
