Burger King goes halal in France, replacing pork with halal beef and chicken

Dec 20, 2015 12:27 pm By Robert Spencer

In Muslim countries, non-Muslims know to bow to Islamic sensibilities. In non-Muslim countries, non-Muslims know to bow to Islamic sensibilities.

“U.S. fast food chain now caters to Muslim consumers, replacing pork with halal beef and chicken,” by Jonah Hicap, Christian Today, December 20, 2015 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

An American fast food chain is taking advantage of the growing Muslim population in France by replacing all pork and bacon products from its menu with halal-certified beef and chicken.

Burger King is going after the 5-million strong Muslim consumers in France, the country with the biggest Muslim population in Europe, WND reported.

This came about after Burger King took over hamburger chain Quick’s 405 outlets in France, according to The Local and Le Parisien.

With its expansion, Burger King will directly compete with McDonald’s, which has 1,300 fast food outlets in France. The acquisition of Quick will make Burger King, which currently has 30 stores in France, the second largest fast food chain in the country.

Quick registered a turnover of $1.12 billion last year and employs 19,000 people.

Quick has about 20 halal restaurants in France, which source meat from animals slaughtered in compliance with Islamic law.

Le Parisien reported that the halal food market in France is worth about 5.5 billion euros. Groupe Bertrand, the major shareholder of Burger King France, is set to finalise the takeover of Quick this month.

The halal burger outlet is a growing market in France. An experiment was conducted for six months in 2009 to test the consumers’ preference for halal food.

Some politicians opposed the lack of pork in some fast food restaurants, saying it’s a form of “communitarianism.”…

    The French can take whatever course of action they wish, but when my local Burger King announces something like this I will never go there to eat again.

      I’m no muslim but I kinda like halal meat. It doesn’t taste that bad

        I like a bacon cheeseburger once in a while. Why can’t people have a choice? If a person does not like pork, he/she simply does not have to order it.

        The manner in which the meat is slaughtered and whether or not it’s had a prayer said over it is another matter …. I would like my meat to be killed in the most painless way possible and for the animal to be non-denominational ….. I can always pray over it myself to thank God for its giving up its life for me . Think of it as being similar to the idea that I would prefer to decide how much sugar to put into my tea or how much salt I would like in soup.

          Dec 21, 2015 at 4:26 am

          Don’t be pretending your give a shot how the animal was killed . I don’t believe it’s any more inhumane than a bolt of fucking electric through a cow’s body . Did you worry about how many ants you stepped on today?

        • Aardvark says

          Dec 21, 2015 at 4:58 am

          But I DO care about how the animal is slaughtered.

          Halal slaughter is claimed (by mohammedans of course) to be painless, but a report by the Farm Animal Welfare Committee revealed that the animal can be in extreme pain for up to two minutes before becoming unconscious.

          I would prefer to eat meat from animals that have been stunned before being killed, not ones that have had their throats cut while fully aware and then hung upside down while they bled to death in agony.

          Halal slaughter is just another vile side of a vile religion.

      • ToxicThistle says

        Dec 20, 2015 at 4:12 pm

        How it tastes is not the point. Animals are cruelly slaughtered while their tormentors (Moslems) chant prayers.
        It’s also written in their Quran (or whatever new laws they create for themselves on a daily basis) that if no “halal” food is available, they may eat non-halal food. Demanding halal food is just another Moslem power play. No one should ever bow to the demands of Moslems.

        Dec 20, 2015 at 7:13 pm

        Halal slaughter is animal cruelty, it is also meat consecrated to Allah (spiritual pollution), it is also a wedge in furthering the Islamization of a kaffir society (demand upon demand to be catered to), it is also an industry both directly (think al Qaeda poultry operations) and indirectly (zakat requirements to aid mujahideen) funding jihad.

        Other than that, go have your halal meat, as long as you know you are eating halal (unlike, say, British schoolchildren and other unsuspecting infidels eating at chains not telling them they’ve switched to halal) and you are aware of everything that goes with it, see above, and what you are supporting by doing so.

        • Robert_K says

          Dec 21, 2015 at 12:44 am

          Don’t worry so much about animal cruelty. I heard that Muslim slaughterers practice Halal slaughtering on Infidel necks until they get it right.

          Dec 21, 2015 at 8:19 am

          Thank you, Jack Diamond. Some people don’t understand the significance of the ritual slaughter and “prayer” – sacrifice to an idol (“allah”) that it entails. I refuse to eat halal.

        • Jack Diamond says

          Dec 21, 2015 at 4:29 pm

          Furthermore, to demonstrate that the whole halal demand is an issue of Islamic supremacism foremost, is the fact the Qur’an permits a Muslim to eat the meat of the People of the Book “…the food (slaughtered cattle, eatable animals) of the people of the Scripture is lawful to you and yours is lawful to them.” Sura 5:3 Meat slaughtered by Jews & Christians is lawful for Muslims to eat. Halal in other words!

          But it is the establishment of Islam that matters and halal meats are a great wedge. Halal is yet another demand Muslims can make. It becomes a source of jobs and income and influence, look how schools and businesses go halal since it is a burden to provide different kinds of meat. Thus 25% of the UK meat market is halal while Muslims are 5% of the UK population.

          Who controls halal food? 60% in France is reported to be controlled by Muslim Brotherhood related organizations. Al Qaeda was directly linked to the huge poultry business, Al-Watania. There is big money in halal and of course all Muslims and Muslim businesses pay zakat, charity tax, and zakat is divided into 8 categories, one of which is to finance mujahideen fighting in Allah’s cause. Thus 25% of the UK meat market is halal while Muslims are 5% of the UK population.

          “There is an open campaign by Islamic food agencies to integrate halal into the mainstream market and to extend it to non-Muslims. The World Halal Forum held its annual conference in London earlier this month (November), and has identified the UK as a pilot project for halal in Europe…

          The spread of halal is often part of the commitment to Islamic mission (dawa) and the Islamisation of non-Muslim societies. The imposition of sharia practices on non-Muslims may be interpreted as an act of Islamic supremacy.”

          Sura 5:5 not 5:3
          (5. Made lawful to you this day are At-Tayyibat. The food of the People of the Scripture is lawful to you, and your food is lawful to them.

          Tafsir Ibn Kathir:
          (The food of the People of the Scripture is lawful to you..) meaning, their slaughtered animals, as Ibn `Abbas, Abu Umamah, Mujahid, Sa`id bin Jubayr, `Ikrimah, `Ata’, Al-Hasan, Makhul, Ibrahim An-Nakha`i, As-Suddi and Muqatil bin Hayyan stated. This ruling, that the slaughtered animals of the People of the Book are permissible for Muslims, is agreed on by the scholars, because the People of the Book believe that slaughtering for other than Allah is prohibited. They mention Allah’s Name upon slaughtering their animals, even though they have deviant beliefs about Allah that do not befit His majesty. I

        There is no difference in taste but a huge difference in demonic rituals performed on your lunch or demon free food.
        Which one do you want now?
        I am quite sure that we have all consumed Halal foods because nearly everything in Australia is Halal now but that’s not becaue we purposely look for it. It’s because we simply can’t avoid it. With so many products not labelled Halal we don’t even have a choice.
        If I find out that a local burger shop is all Halal I will not eat there and I will tell them why.

      • min says

        Dec 21, 2015 at 12:30 am

        That’s because it’s exactly the same. There is still blood in the meat. The only difference is the slaughtering practice and/or whether a prayer dedicating the food to allan has been said over it. So, bollocks.

      Hear, hear. I live in a Muslim majority country, and I’m doing the same. It’s harder as almost everything you see is halal. But we are making a stand. If I have no choice but to go into a halal joint, I order fish or vegetarian. I don’t like to eat looking at a piece of meat that has been “sacrificed” to Allah.

    This is actually quite sensible from a profit-and-loss point of view.

    So let me get this straight.

    For DECADES, all the animal rights groups have made we farmers and ranchers go through Hell, with their highly edited/pick the worst examples to film, films of us being barbaric to our livestock…

    And now these same idiots are going to allow Halal meats, which basically requires the animal be stressed and bled out for several minutes to die?

    If the animal rights people aren’t protesting every single one of these places, they better pack their hypocritical P.E.T.A. butts up and go home.

    As for me.

    I’m going to start asking every food joint I go into, if they’re halal compliant, and I’m going to walk out it it is, bill paid or not.

    Have a nice day Burger King.

      Most of our supermarkets in the UK are halal compliant even though Muslims are a minority, what’s more it is not marked as Halal. I gave up buying meat at supermarkets some time ago and only buy from my local butcher. Believe me halal slaughtered meat does taste vile compared to meat that has been humanely slaughtered and hung for 30 days. Try it, you will never buy halal again. I am a fan of Burger King but if that halal crap is brought over here, I will never darken their doors again

Brothers and Sisters, please continue to eat those hogs, in various forms — ham, bacon, etc. — ; do not neglect the alcoholic beverages produced by your fine breweries; and do not neglect to fornicate for it is enjoyable.

    Despite being worldly, you are happier than the tight-assed, self-righteous puritans who worship the moon-god Allah, who has three daughters, whose whose intercession is hoped for.

    Holidaying in the South of France one summer recently, my hosts bought a lot of pork saying ‘we always buy a lot of pork during Ramadan as it’s cheap then as the Muslims aren’t buying it’. The only possible explanation for the dip in prices during Ramadan is that the local Muslims just give it up temporarily during Ramadan but they DO eat it the rest of the year. So Burger King will be complying with Islamic food laws more strictly than many of the natives French Muslims.

    People actually eat pork at Burger King?

    I’m concerned about Halal slaughter because it discriminates against non-Muslims and is cruel, but anything at Burger King is unwise, and pork sounds like it could have some serious dyspepsia associated with it.

  10. Veritas says

    Dec 20, 2015 at 2:41 pm

    Irrespective of how the animal is slaughtered, in order for meat to become ‘Halal’, part of the process involves reciting the Shahada.

    This declaration states that there is no god but ‘the god’, and that Mohammed is his prophet.

    If you are a Christian, Mohammed is not your prophet. Therefore, his god is an idol.

    This places you in direct violation of the first commandment.

      Dec 20, 2015 at 3:41 pm

      Very good point. And it’s surely not very Christian to help support
      a practice that inflicts so much unnecessary distress and suffering
      upon God’s creatures. There’s also the not so small issue of the proceeds
      of halal certified food going towards funding global jihad. There can
      be no whatsoever excuse for indulging this.

    Dec 20, 2015 at 7:01 pm

    One clarification to the article; BK is still headquartered in the US but is actually owned by a company in Canada.

    Many people think halal is humane slaughter; most have no idea what is actually done to the animal and only connect it with some kind of spiritualism.

    The New Testament tells us it’s okay to eat food offered to idols. I also don’t blame a company for developing a market, so long as I don’t pay a price for that. But, BK, I still don’t want halal and will probably cross you off my list.

    Burger King is going after the 5-million strong Muslim consumers in France

    They’re a private company and if that’s how they want to run their business, fine. The thing is, there’s around 67-68 million French people. Take out those 5 million muslims (the number is probably closer to 6-7 since it’s estimated that 10% of French are muslims) and you’re left with tens of million of French people that won’t be getting a pork hamburgers from BK. If every one of them stopped spending their money in BK restaurants and wrote BK a polite email saying “Hi. I’m not going to spent another cent in any of your restaurants because not only you’re not selling pork anymore, you’re also replacing it with halal-certified meat, which is obtained by killing the animals in a cruel, painful way. Hope those 5 million muslims you’re kowtowing to can make up for the money you won’t be getting from me”, the problem would sort it self out.

    • Peggy says

      Dec 22, 2015 at 6:31 pm

      Yes that would be the case but Christians and other non Muslims are not united like Muslims are.

    have any of you people seen how they keep chickens couped up in their own shit?
    Stop pretending the reason you don’t want halal food in Burger king is because of how it’s killed , and just admit it’s because you just don’t want Muslim food served there .

    If we lined humans up and put a bolt of electric through their body then cut them apart and ate them would you think it’s humane ? Of course you wouldn’t . We don’t treat animals as humane anyway because they aren’t human . They whole way of life is cruel when it comes to surviving.

    Have you ever ate prawns, lobster, crab or fish? Why you not complaining about all the none Muslim restaurants cooking animals alive?
    Answer me this. If someone got another human and murdered them with an electric bolt and ate them would you say they done it humane. If ISIS started killing people by an electric bolt to the head would you say well at least they are doing it more humane.

  24. Mark says

    Dec 21, 2015 at 6:10 am

    The definition of humane is acting in a manner that causes the least harm to people or animals:
    Well I would say a bolt of electric into the head of anything causes a good bit of harm and then killing it causes the ultimate harm. The whole process before it probably causes a lot of distress too.
    If you really cared you wouldn’t be eating it in the first place. I myself dont really give much thought to it when I eat anything because if it really bothered me I wouldnt eat meat.

      If the objection is health and not philosophy (eating animals at all) I’d just say eat less of everything (attention Wal-mart shoppers) rather than exclude a good filet mignon once in awhile. I would note anecdotally a number of the “health-nuts” I’ve known have died pretty young anyway. Coffee and chocolate remain safe options for those, like me, who frown at a life of mere vegetables. Along with a high protein multivitamin, perhaps washed down with a gin martini. Stirred not shaken. Moving your body is probably more important than obsessing over your diet. Some of the longest living and healthiest and happiest people I’ve known were dancers, hint hint.

    The cruel & barbaric Halal-ritual animal slaughter {sacrifice } blatantly rejects the modern more humane western abattoir practices where the animal is stunned before it is slaughtered .Halal requires
    the animal be alive and that while conscious the animal’s throat is slashed , thrashing in pain and immense distress the wounded animal slowly bleeds to death while an imam blesses this animal-sacrifice in Allah’s name… the most benevolent the most merciful ~!?! !
    Islamic organizations are fighting to protect a billion dollar industry that thrives on labeling products as halal certified, plus collecting the Imam fee for blessing this cruel ritual slaughter of animals. Bonus …only practicing Muslims need apply at halal abattoirs .
    Quite a ludicrous islamic shake-down ~!?!

  28. Peter Weber says

    Dec 21, 2015 at 8:35 am

    We have to accept halal food because of the religion of Muslims. What about the Christians?

    Co 10:28 however, if someone says to you, “This was offered as a sacrifice,” don’t eat it, both out of consideration for the one who told you and also for the sake of conscience.

    Christians need to understand that Allah is not just another word for ‘God. Allah is an idol. Islam is Idolatry

    The religion of Islam is not consistent with Christianity. Islam does not recognise Jesus as the Son of God. It is a basic belief of Christianity that God has revealed himself through his only Son, Jesus Christ.

    I think also a Christians opinion who does not want to eat halal meat has to be respected.

    We also have to accept that kids are being taught in school all over the UK that a man was nailed to a cross to wash away all our sins . We have to accept this child abuse that some bearded man in the sky needs praying to .
    The funny thing is you don’t have to accept halal meat , nobody is forcing it down your neck . Just don’t buy it it’s that simple .

      “We also have to accept that kids are being taught in school all over the UK that a man was nailed to a cross to wash away all our sins .”

      Take your anti-Christian bigotry elsewhere. This site is about ISLAM. Address THAT.

      “We have to accept this child abuse that some bearded man in the sky needs praying to .”

      I don’t know of any religion that teaches that. Can you tell me which it is?

    This shows that the youth of France are on the side of Islam.

    I don’t like Burger King anyway, and this gives me more reason to not patronize these cowards. I will never enter or drive up to a Burger King again. When a small militant minority can dictate the eating habits of the majority, I will not participate.

    Why are do many people freaking out over the slaughter process? It’s virtually the same as kosher slaughter. If you are against halal slaughter then you are against kosher too.

      {Pam Gellar posted this once on the difference. There are many more reasons than the slaughter method to be against halal.}

      Kosher – requires the animal be slaughtered quickly and humanely, strictly forbidding cruel slow methods like strangulation.

      Halal – requires the animal be bled out in agony while sick people who get off watching that kind of thing have a “festival.”

      Kosher – requires the blood be drained cleanly from the *carcass* of the humanely killed animal, removing toxins released from cells into the bloodstream at the moment of death from the meat.

      Halal –leaves the meat *filled* with toxins released at the moment of death because the blood is removed while the animal is dying and therefore is not present in sufficient quantities to remove those last toxins.

      Kosher – contains little to no cortisol or norepenepherine (two stress chemicals that are similar enough from mammal to mammal to cross species) because the animal to be killed is treated well before it is put down and is generally not frightened as it is put down (because in a truly kosher slaughter situation, animals cannot be slaughtered in a sequential fashion, as the waste of one could contaminate the next, so they are not exposed to the “scent of death” the way non-kosher culls are)

      Halal – animals watch other animals die during the blood letting festival, smelling their fear and raising their own stress. These stress chemicals “marinate” the meat in hormones known to raise levels of aggression and violence in nearly all mammal species (including human).

      Kosher – requires cooking the cleanly drained meat completely, cooking any remaining stress chemicals into oblivion.

      Halal – allows for a surprising range of cooking methods, including even some “tar tar” dishes (raw or nearly raw), allowing for the spread of disease and chemicals and hormones that were not removed by the idiotic slow bloodletting practice and half-measure cooking.

    I am informed that in South Africa, many, if not all McDonalds outlets have gone Halal.

    I am also informed by my Christian informer that ever since such outlets have gone Halal,
    many Christians would no longer use them.

    The QA page of McDonald’s here in Finland http://www.mcdonalds.fi/fi/tutustu/palaute/kysymyksia-ja-vastauksia.html says about halal-torture the following:

    “McDonald’s does not use halal meat (from cow) in any EU country. Most of he chicken products of McDonald’s are manufactured by Danish Danpo A/S, and part of their products are exported to muslim-countries that require halal production methods.For this reason Danpo A/S in Denmark use halal-slaughter.” It then continues on saying that some part of non-halal chicken is mixed to the halal-chicken so that the end product then becomes non-halal (but contains presumably a large portion of halal-tortured chicken).

    This barbaric muslim ritual requires that the eyes of the animal must be facing towards the cursed place in Mecca so that such view will be last in the vision of that poor animal when it finally dies after the _muslim_ torturer cuts the throat (and some nearby veins) of the animal. So it is absolutely cruel torture killing. And this cruelty towards animals by muslims is silently creeping in, all over the world.

    Note that the torturer who says the required incantation must be a muslim, this belif-sysem has also such power over the particular profession.

    Also, the fake-refugees in Finland are raging of anger in case they are offered non-halal (free) food, but yet they are drinking alcoholic beverages, night after night, that is equally forbidden by the evil book of Islam. So Islam is a false, fake belief system, muslims only use the “commandments” from the book when they are helping with their current agenda.

    The barbaric attitude of muslims towards animals is not limited to the livestock. Here in Finland we have had for example a case where a fake-refugee tormented and then raped a cat. And many cases were muslims have thrown stones at dogs.

    Salaam all,

    Such good news …amazing.

    Kuffar is moving up the spiritual chain…Koran says it is unclean meat …and kuffar (especially so by elements of the great satan) have banned it in France.

    Kuffar is learning the truth about pork…and are falling in line with thinking from the Koran.

    Thank you BK…now please spread the message worldwide…

    More :Later ..

    This kind of behaviour by the f’ing food chains will stop when the NORMAL people stop going too the outlets altogether
    But is that likely to happen??
