Halal Choices..... are you concerned with the halal slaughter of animals such as beef, lamb and poultry.

 

To be halal certified the animal must be facing Mecca, have its throat cut while still alive and then ritually sacrificed by a Muslim who recites a prayer dedicating the slaughter to Allah.

 

Because the animals must be slaughtered alive, stun guns are often not an option as they can kill an animal before the heart pumps out all the blood.

Interesting youtube    https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=mSP47FAtn6U  

 

The presenter is Kirralie Smith, an average Aussie housewife, who does the weekly grocery shopping. 


Ms Smith became aware, then alarmed, about the Islamic halal certification on so many of her shopping list items. She looked for a list of halal certified foods so she could make informed choices about what to buy and what to avoid.

There was no such list, yet so many supermarket products were stamped 'halal certified'.

Ms Smith started to do her own investigation, calling supermarket chains, grocery producers - even the halal certifiers - all so she could be better informed when she went to do her shopping.

She has personally contacted over 500 companies to determine their halal certification status.

 

What she discovered was bigger than big. 

 

 

 

Kirralie Smith is the founder and director of HalalChoices. Kirralie holds a BA in Theology and lives with her family in coastal New South Wales. What started as an attempt to put together a shopping list for her family led to two years of research into halal certification schemes in Australia; as well as our most comprehensive resource concerning these tax-like schemes now imposed on the majority of our food products.

Re: Halal Choices

I love food and cooking too much to eat a spartan diet.  Boring, boring.

 

Tonight I'm having firehouse chilli, rice, raiti, and chappati.   Don't care what labels were on the ingredients.
