Four'n Twenty Pies are now halal

[ufo_investigations]

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.

tell us what brand the cheese is so it can go on the boycott list.

I like goat milk cheeses. I like most cheese that hasn't been over processed ... I don't even think of buying a cheese product made by Kraft.

Where did you read that? On a facebook page? Pickering Post? It isn't correct.

Reply to an enquiry from Vegemite owners (Mondelez International)

..Following other consumer inquiries, we have written formally to the AFIC  [Australian Federation if Islamic Councils] in order to seek clarification on its business activities. In response, the AFIC provided us with verbal and written assurances that it is not engaged in unlawful activities.

As such, we have confidence in AFIC as a reputable organisation. We pay a blanket administration fee that covers the certification of a number of our products.

This cost is not a tax and is not attributed to a particular product or brand, therefore consumers don’t pay more for a Halal certified product versus a non-certified product.

WE are being bullied by being subjected to threads on the same subject over and over again.

This post has bothered me for a while now.

Some would say the same thing about all the political threads.

Isn't it good to discuss issues such as these and increase awareness? Halal is quite a new concept for a lot of people. Because it is new, there are a lot of misconceptions and unknowns. Discussion may not change everyones' minds one way or the other, but for some it must lead to education on the topic and eventual acceptance. If people don't discuss what concerns them, it will likely always remain "the big scary monster under the bed" to be afraid of, and in the case of Muslims, a slower inclusion of them and their culture into the Australian landscape.

it's not inclusion. it's us bowing down to pre-middle age ideas.

inclusion would be ...something else.

ah well never mind. just go ahead with it and be a dhimmi. and pay your kuffar tax.

Ditto.   Is there actually any cheese in Kraft "cheese" slices ?

Goat's curd, like the Woodside Cheesewrights version, is awesome 🙂

Hang on, better check whether it's halal lol, maybe I need to ban it on a false and ignorant premise.

I have to laugh - or feel sorry - no, bugger it, I'll laugh, at all those on this thread making some sort of misguided statement by banning Halal branded food.

Carry on !

I don't think that UFO's objection is to food being Halal, is it? I gather that it is the objection of the funds paid to an organisation about  which they have suspicions, for the ability to label and promote it.

Although, their justification for Italian restaurant preferential patronage indicates a determined effort to avoid all things Muslim.

I don't mind discussing halal (or politics) godiva. Actually I enjoy it.

But I object to the boards being bombarded with untruths all in the name of creating myths in order to make criticism of Islam appear legitimate.

The 'halal funds terrorism' garbage that has been spouted on this thread by numerous people is a good example.
