haddy   10 #37 Posted August 10, 2013 By law shops that cover a larger area can not open Easter Sunday or Christmas day, so it's not something the store can help, so obviously not there fault equals.Not poor service!  ---------- Post added 10-08-2013 at 09:47 ----------  End of the day meat is meat no matter how it's slaughtered Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
byeo   10 #38 Posted August 10, 2013 Why would anyone that isn't Muslim want to eat Halal meat, anyway?  Because the Halal counter in Tesco nr the Wicker has some lovely chicken which is marinated in lovely sauces. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Ah well, guess all good things come to an end eventually.  One Tesco's butchers counter in Sheffield suddenly is all Britain, is it? And Eid is the only thing that has changed Britain, is it? Go back to any point in Britain's past and you wouldn't be used to it now and for no reason connected to Eid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
sheff1johnny   10 #41 Posted August 10, 2013 I find it good, that tesco respects a religion, and didn't make the people open, on what is the Muslim equivalent of our Christmas. If the store was made to open Christmas day, we'd be upset. It was only one butchers, which sells hal al meat. sorry if I got the spelling wrong.

Rupert_Baehr   10 #45 Posted August 10, 2013 Sorry to inform you but Jesus was born in march........or June .......  Real thing..... I believe you.... ?  Or September.  Christmas was formed by overlaying the Christian festival on the pre-existing ancient Pagan festival, Yule.  Why isn't Eid overlaid on Christmas?

boyfriday   21 #47 Posted August 10, 2013 That didn't answer one single thing I asked.  No, Tesco don't only employ Muslim butchers.  The counter only sells halal meat, so it probably wouldn't be economically viable to have it open when most of their customers are sat at home partying.  Just common sense really.
