Totally agree with this. Electrocution is just as bad as chopping their head off with one swipe.
If you're so concerned about the humaneness of slaughter, why don't you become a vegetarian.
Halal only outlets

But do you agree that slitting it's throat and letting it bleed to death is worse & less humane?

Did you not read this? and you have the option of eating somewhere else dont you?
8. Is KFC's halal chicken stunned before slaughter?
Yes, due to our strict animal welfare standards, we insist that all our poultry is stunned before slaughter. Our halal chicken has been accredited by the Halal Food Authority, one of the most widely recognised bodies in the UK and overseas. It allows the use of a technique called 'stun-to-stun' - a pain free process that makes the animal insensible to pain and suffering. A verse is also recited from the Koran at the point of slaughter by an appropriate person and the poultry will not come into contact with non-halal meat at any point in the supply chain.
The HFA accreditation which is clearly signposted in the participating restaurants allows us to offer halal accredited meat whilst remaining committed to the same animal welfare standards as before, which meet or exceed all relevant UK and EU legislation.
They wash 5 times a day JEEZ! put their water prices up!
Less humane, no.
Worse for the animal, maybe, as it will have to endure JUST a few more seconds of pain. Electrocution isn't always completely instant and painless.

*snip*
I don't see how that has relevance, I never said anything about being against Halal meat, I'd eat it if it had been killed humanely but if it was not stunned before I wouldn't.
& why should we have Halal only restaurants then? They have other options so why don't THEY go eat somewhere else? See I can do it too.
The best approach would be to cater for all.
You say yourself that it is worse for the animal than stunning it and so personally I'd say that it's less humane.

Why not we just ship them back to muslimania
EVEN BETTER!

Is that on the road to Wrestlemania?
Again, it is up to the business as to how important it thinks the Sikh custom is compared to the muslim custom. If they make the wrong decision they suffer for it by losing business. If there is enough demand for non-halal then someone will step in to fill the gap in the market.

lol, i think so
most chicken is halal slaughted anyway though even if its not labeled as such
nothing wrong with the jews, they make loadsa money and dont make much trouble, muslims with their halal meat and their excess water use and ninja women is another matter
can you tell me how killing anything can be done "humanely"? what do you when you say mean humanely?
i just dont understand your arguement, its like saying pizza hut is discriminating against asians because it does not sell currys or sushi
so they dont want non-halal food, ok then. most 'indian' restaurants are halal, but you never would notice. any business that wants to stay alive needs to understand its market and cater for it. business 101 mate!
honestly, its the one of the craziest objections to an islamic principle i have ever come across!

Personally i don't care what happened to my meat before it became meat. Its still dead in the end no? Do people actually care about the 'feelings' of a chicken, pig or cow before you eat it?

Realistically, I couldn't give two ****s if they had it stomped to death by a horse. If it tastes good, it's going IN MY BELLY!
As for the OP...I don't see the problem. If you want bacon on your burger, take your custom somewhere else. The meat's no different even if it is "Halal", so if you want to eat it, do.
Oh, and Asim, quit trying to justify why you won't eat pork for reasons other than your religion. The ones you've provided do nothing but enlighten your indoctrination even more.

Yunno, I read an article a while back in the newspaper about the way chickens were slaughtered in the way you might call "non-barbaric". The chickens are stunned first and then boiled, after this 25% are still alive so they go through the process again. I don't know about you but I'd rather have my throat cut quickly with a knife that HAS to be sharp then endure the former method. Each to there own I guess/
BS. I'm not even a practising Muslim. I do drink, drugs and sex. I won't eat pig because I think it's ugly and fat.
