This might be old news however for lots of reasons I think it is worth discussing

What a laugh, Donna, you picking on foreign investors like Aldi and Costco!
Where do you source your products for resale from?
Made in Australia?
Yeah right!

I do not support Australian companies who advocate islam and islamic sharia law. I am Aussie and support Australian values first.
To take it home you have to pay $15.99/kilo. Most families wouldn't be able to pay that much for a kilo of cheese.

You harp on about Australian values and supporting Aussies yet you go out of your way not to buy Australian made.
It would make MUCH more sense to support and Australian company over a dodgy German one.

So where do you think the Aussie companies source their products from?
Same as the dodgy German one.
Aldi stock Aussie made products as well.

Aussie cheeses are some of the best. There's no reason to buy imports except for the variety offered by some of the quality imports, none of which are less than $20 a kilo.

I don't care how nice the Australian cheeses are. If they are dedicated supporters of islamic sharia law either publicly or secretly I wont be buying their products. Australian companies have a choice, it is up to them if they want my business.
At least I know that Aussie bacon and ham is not halal. 😉
With cheeses I have to go and buy overseas products or to local cheese makers on small farms to source non-islamic products.

Australian dairy producers using the halal symbol do not support islamic sharia law anymore than they support Kosher law or the 10 commandments. They are only interested in making a living or making a profit. Australia has developed a huge export market into countries in which people purchase halal or kosher foods. Large new factories, employing dozens of people each work on export lines, due to an increase in sales to various parts of the world inhabited by muslim people.
You are confusing criminal terrorists with muslims and Islam. The entire muslim population are not terrorists, nor are they ever likely to be regardless of what they eat.
