I was wondering about this as it was brought up recently.
Halal is more than just how an animal is treated/slaughtered. That’s a big part of it, but there’s ethics beyond food. And of course there’s interpretation so we’ll see variations in meaning from different cultures and people.
They have to use separate equipment for all halal foods than non-halal. They have to use special cleaning supplies that are compliant and have no non-Halal ingredients.
I mean, not for a lot of food production. We had Halal cert at our grain mill and a few other places I’ve worked at, and we never treated the food differently. Same with Kosher. They just send someone out to extort your business for certificate renewal.
You’re supposed to. If they don’t they are lying to their customers. They don’t want it to touch the grills that were used for pork etc.
Grain mills don’t usually have things touching pork though
I thought halal was just bleeding out an animal while the heart still beats, praying for it?
Is there actually different rituals for the equipment as well?Who fuckin cares all religion is a power play
Ya know there’s caring about religion and there’s curiousness. I don’t care about the catholics but I’m curious about the torture methods of the Spanish Inquisition…
Ya know I’ll say this, on a reread it’s not entirely clear that op wants to learn about halal to further it’s use/application.
I assumed that much, cause fuck organized religion, but it may not have been their intent.
I stand by my original comment but acknowledge the target of my ire may not be OP
Learning about other ways to live, act, think and perceive is important if you want to understand the world you live in.
More importantly, to you at least, if you want to change other people caught in said powerplay, you have to listen to them. Forcing them to listen to you, will only make them grab harder at their own beliefs.
And one could argue talking with out listening is a powerplay of its own.
Merry Christmas
No need to further patriarchal, genocidal, child rape cults on the fediverse.
And no, this isn’t targeted islamiphobia because what I just said applies to many more than just Islam.
Edit I don’t need to learn about meal prep routines to competently reject bigoted ideologies
While this may be the case, it is still an important question for anyone who wants to open a restaurant or market.
Or just don’t offer halal or any other religious hoop
Yeah, because starting up a new restaurant is so easy to turn a profit turning away customers is a good idea? Am I right?
You mean the 99%+ that wouldn’t care?
That’s pretty regional dependent
