UK: KFC's Taking Bacon Off Menu Because It Violates Islamic Law

From Weasel Zippers:

(Daily Mail)- A diner was left fuming after a KFC restaurant took his favourite meal off the menu because it breached their new halal regulations.

Alan Phillips was told he would have to travel five miles to another branch if he wanted the Big Daddy, a chicken burger, topped with bacon, cheese and salad.

The branch, in Burton-on-Trent, Staffordshire, is one of 86 KFC restaurants which is running trials of a scheme where they sell nothing other than halal meat.

The company has taken the burger off the menu because Islamic dietary law forbids Muslims to eat anything which has been prepared on the same premises as pork, which is itself strictly forbidden.

It said it was responding to 'increased demand' for a halal menu in the areas of Britain with growing Muslim populations.

Mr Phillips said he found the change 'extremely unfair' on non-Muslim customers.

'I can't believe a chain like this has taken this stance,' he said. 'Staff told me that due to the dietary laws halal meat could not be prepared in the same place as other meats, so I couldn't have my bacon.

Stealth Jihad is a gradual incremental process - death by a thousand cuts.

So how do we awaken our sleeping fellow citizens to the creeping Islamic menace?

I doubt whether we can get the message over to them by appealing to their own short-term self-interest. Islam isn't going to become dominant in the timescale most people plan ahead.

What we need to do is to tell them what will happen to their children and grandchildren when Islam takes over.

Most people are more concerned for their children's welfare than for their own - they smoke but don't like it when their kids start smoking etc. They take risks that they wouldn't let their kids take.

People tend to plan ahead more for their kids than they do for themselves. So we need to get the message over that although the Islamic takeover may not happen in their own lifetimes, if they don't stop the slow but gradual rot, they are condemning their children and grandchildren to living in an Islamic hell-on-earth.

If only the nationwide KFC customers would boycott them. Won't happen but I can dream.

I blame KFC for caving in.

Can't say I find this too offensive. As someone who keeps kosher, I know of some national franchises in the U.S. that maintain kosher outlets where there is a sizable Jewish market. In kosher Dunkin Donuts, for example, one cannot get any meat products. Its all business...

Well not another KFC bite for me until they cease with the civilizational backstabbing dhimmitude. Just stop it.

If the Colonel were still around today, he might just remind these dhimmified hacks not to fuck with a successful recipe.

I don't thinks its fair what they are doing.
We love KFC, so we should be able to eat it.
If someones religion prohibits them from eating it, then don't eat it but we will
