I went to 7-Eleven tonight to get a bite to eat, grabbed a Four'n Twenty pie and gosh it was halal.
Traitors! How can they do this?
I put it back in the warmer then drove to a local Italian restaurant and we had pasta carbonara.

I boycott Halal foods because i think the whole halal labelling is a scam.
These halal certification committees are telling companies that they either purchase the certification or their products will fail on the export market. They then charge the companies up to $30 000 a month for the certification.
Its a load of rubbish
Where is the money going? I do know it goes into funding Islamic schools (that do already receive Gov funding) and building of Mosques. Does it also fund terrorism? I have no idea but i wouldnt be surprised if it did. We have recently seen footage from within a Mosque of a Muslim youth group chanting about ending democracy in Australia
Recently the chairperson for the Islamic Council WA Halal Certification Committe was arrested for possession of meth with a street value of $8 million and firearms. Is that something the Halal certification money is also going to?
My choice to boycott Halal is my choice. Agree with it or not, makes no difference to me.
And just an extra piece of info, not all products that pay for the Halal certification actually display the logo

I can only see one thread on the whole front page of CS about Halal, so you clearly have a huge range of other threads to visit if you dont wish to discuss it

is that a tricky question lol
Neither the Australia nor the New Zealand Sanitarium companies pay company tax on their profits, due to their ownership by a religious organisation. On their official website Sanitarium defend their tax exemption with several points, stating they operate exclusively for charitable purposes, and that income tax exemptions are available to all companies and individuals in New Zealand who limit themselves to charitable purposes.

They use the profits to build churches, they worship on a different day, they have unusual beliefs and practices.
Wait a minute, that sounds like the Muslim religion.

a scam?
Halal certification has created 30,000 jobs directly and about 400,000 jobs indirectly and all the misguided writer of these emails are doing their best to accuse HCAA and the manufacturers it certifies of being involved directly or indirectly of terrorism.
The true terrorists are the writers of these emails who seem to be a combination of xenophobes, bigots and ignorant people determined to sabotage one third of Australia’s food export that HCAA helped build over the years.

Hello, everyone.
This thread is getting a little off-topic and a number of interpersonal disputes have been occuring.
This is against the Community Guideline:
Could we please bring the discussion back to "Four'n Twenty Pies are now halal"
Thanks!
