as far Cadbury's chocolate we eat it. I'ts a shame that most proccessed foods we buy now have palm oil in them, it's cheaper product for the manufacturers but it is really bad for your health.

Halal certfication doesn't bother me, chocolate, we all like pretty much any chocolate. 

Though Halal certification doesn't bother me on things like chocolate. I would not  buy Halal or Kosher certified meat as I disagree with the slaughtering practises.

 I think I would have to go out of my way,  like to a specialist butcher to find any anyway as I've never seen any Halal meat in my supermarkets.

No. They live in countries that don't have the diversity that Australia has.

The question is. Which  is better for the animal. Stunning or not stunning? Either way, they're dead.

I've never seen any in my local supermarkets.. There are around 12 abboitoirs in Aust. that have religious exemptions, for kosher and halal meat

[debra9275]

Who Julia or me? I am strongly against religious slaughter and live animal export and always have been

[vicr3000]

Yes, isn't it.

I know the RSPCA is against the exemtions, it would be interesting to know what the Greens position is.

Probably support the minority, even if it is cruel.
