Sometimes it is better to remain silent and let folk think you are daft, rather than post and prove it. Angel1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

On the other hand there have been many cases where street sold burgers have been found to be made with meat sourced from unregistered abattoirs run by criminal gangs some of whom include already dead animals most of which died of disease. I was talking to someone who ran a burger van about why so many uncooked burgers are just dumped after a public event and she said that they were usually defrosted and couldn’t be refrozen but the main reason was that they were so cheap that they weren’t worth the cost of the diesel to take them home! 😱 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

I would rather eat a burger made from Halal mince than one sold on the street outside Bramall Lane or the DSA Arena. I would like to see some evidence for that. I wasn't aware that the animals selected for ritual slaughter came from specific farms of a superior quality than animals for standard slaughter. 1 hour ago, Top Cats Hat said: Absolutely sure, given that I am very unlikely to eat anything butchered and cut up in someone’s backyard.

Chicken nuggets aren’t meat, they are meat-based products containing less than 50% chicken plus a load of filler and that is your branded chicken nuggets such as Mc D’s and KFC. Generic catering chicken nuggets for schools and takeaways, are more likely to contain 30% chicken or less. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

And the proof that animals that are ritually slaughtered are from farms that produce higher quality meat (higher welfare standards, better diet etc etc) than animals for standard slaughter?

Certain etiquettes exist on how the animal should be treated- these guys clearly didn't bother. However you can find plenty so called videos even non Halal slaughter houses. This is from one in Belgium- who want to ban Halal slaughter! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Guest makapaka #155 Posted August 15, 2019 This just reinforces my original point. It's cruel to kill animals. If you eat meat you are advocating an element of suffering regardless of the method. Therefore the faux outrage at Halal is really just veiled criticism of muslims - again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Well given that there is no naturally occurring pig DNA in chicken, it can be assumed that the Halal chicken was free of pork before it was turned into nuggets. If you take the finest Kobe beef, mince it, then add 1% of it to fat, salt monosodium glutamate and other fillers to make the world’s crappest beefburgers, does that make the original Kobe beef poor quality?
