Fast food giant Subway has removed ham and bacon from almost 200 outlets, and switched to halal meat alternatives in an attempt to please its Muslim customers.
It has confirmed turkey ham and turkey rashers will be used instead in 185 of its stores, where all the meat will now be prepared according to halal rules.
The chain, which has around 1,500 outlets across the UK, explained its decision by saying it had to balance animal welfare concerns with 'the views of religious communities'.
Nearly 200 Subway branches across the UK and Ireland have cut out ham and bacon, selling only halal meat, in response to demand from their multicultural customers
Traditional halal slaughter sees animals have their throats slit before bleeding to death. But Subway stressed that the meat served in its sandwiches would come from animals that have been stunned first, a practice that aims to reduce any suffering.
In Arabic the word halal means 'permitted' or 'lawful' and defines anything that is allowed or lawful according to the Qur'an.
It is often used to indicate food - particularly meat - has been prepared in accordance with Muslim principles and techniques.
Muslims are forbidden from eating any non-halal food and meat from pigs and Subway said customers can identify those stores selling halal food by the special 'All meats are Halal' sign, which must be displayed in participating branches.
In the halal-only branches ham and bacon has been substituted for turkey ham and rashers.
Many animal charities condemn halal slaughter as being cruel to animals.
Traditionally in halal abattoirs the throats of the animals are cut while they are fully conscious - an act many campaigners say is inhumane and needlessly cruel.
In the halal-only stores ham and bacon have been substituted for turkey ham and turkey rashers, the sandwich chain said. A spokeswoman said all halal meat served in Subway branches has come from animals that were stunned before being slaughtered

In non-halal abattoirs, livestock are stunned before killing to prevent any unnecessary suffering.
Some halal butchers also practise pre-stunning, though it is not permitted by some Islamic scholars.
In Britain, killing an animal without prior stunning is illegal, but the law gives special exemption to Muslim and Jewish meat producers on the grounds of religion.
There are thought to be around 12 abattoirs dedicated to unstunned slaughter in the UK, while hundreds practise stunned halal slaughter.
A Subway spokeswoman told MailOnline all halal meat served in the participating branches is from animals who were stunned prior to slaughter.
She said: 'The growing popularity of the Subway chain with the diverse multicultural population across the UK and Ireland means we have to balance the values of many religious communities with the overall aim of improving the health and welfare standards of animals.
'We put a programme into place in 2007 to ensure that the population demographic is taken into account when new store openings are considered in order that we meet consumer demand in each location.
'All our suppliers comply with EU animal welfare legislation as a minimum and we require suppliers of halal products to adopt the stunning of animals prior to their slaughter.
'All halal meats are certified by the appropriate halal authorities.
'All halal Subway stores have numerous signs stating that they serve halal food.
'These are situated on the menu panels, nutritional information and in the front window of the store.'
Animal campaigning charity PETA urged people to opt for a vegetarian diet to ensure they have the best interests of animals at heart.
A spokesman said: 'At the best of times, meat is a product of a bloody and violent industry with no respect for other living beings who value their lives in the same way that we do and experience the same pain and terror that Subways' customers would if they were killed for a sandwich.
'Most religions, including Islam, preach kindness to animals, but words are one thing and practice another.
'As the Dalai Lama said, "My religion is kindness". And a diet that expresses kindness, is open to all religions and truly respects animal rights is a vegan one.
'Subway-goers, no matter what their religion, can eat with a clear conscience by opting for the veggie patty, the veggie delight or, heaven forbid, a salad.'
Speaking about the general issue of halal slaughter, an RSPCA spokeswoman added: 'Scientific research has clearly shown that slaughter of an animal without stunning can cause unnecessary suffering, and the RSPCA is opposed to the slaughter of any animal without first making it insensible to pain and distress.
'At present, the only legal exemptions to stunning during slaughter exist for kosher and halal methods of slaughter, however, it is important to differentiate between ‘religious’ and ‘non-stun’ slaughter as around 90 per cent of all halal in the UK receives a stun before slaughter.
'Our concern has nothing to do with the expression of religious belief but with the practice of killing by throat cutting without pre-stunning.
'We believe that meat produced from animals stunned or not stunned before slaughter should be clearly labelled to allow consumer choice, and continue to press for changes in the law that would improve the welfare of all farm animals at the time of slaughter.'
HALAL DICTATES OBJECTS OR ACTIONS PERMISSIBLE UNDER ISLAMIC LAW
Halal refers to any object or action which is permissible according to Islamic law. The term covers not only food and drink but also matters of daily life.
Halal foods are those that Muslims are allowed to eat or drink under Islamic Shari'ah. The criteria dictates both food which are allowed and how the food must be prepared. The foods most commonly addressed are types of meat and animal tissue.
The most common example of non-halal, or forbidden food is pork. It is the only meat that must not be eaten by Muslims at all, due to historical, cultural and religiously perceived hygienic concerns.
Other meats can be forbidden, depending on their source, the cause of the animal's death and how it was processed.
To be halal, the food must have come from a supplier that uses halal practises. Specifically the slaughter must be performed by a Muslim, who must invoke the name of Allah prior to killing the animal. Commonly a person will say 'Bismillah' ('In the name of God') before repeating 'Allahu akbar' ('God is the greatest') three times.
The animal is then slaughtered with a sharp knife, by cutting the throat, windpipe and blood vessels in the neck without cutting the spinal cord. The blood must then be drained from the veins of the animal.
Traditionally and according to Islamic scholars an animal must be conscious while slaughtered.
However the majority of halal abattoirs stun the animals before killing them.
Muslims must also ensure that all foods, particularly processed foods, as well as non-food items like cosmetics and pharmaceuticals, are halal.

英國185間Subway 只賣清真肉品
http://m.udn.com/xhtml/ViewFreeArticle?type=news&cate=0&page=1&articleid=3784773
英國每日郵報30日報導，英國、愛爾蘭等地共185間「賽百味」（Subway）連鎖潛艇堡餐廳，即日起不再販售火腿和培根，僅販售符合伊斯蘭教規的清真（halal）肉品，以回應當地穆斯林的強烈訴求。

Subway左右為難
http://orientaldaily.on.cc/cnt/china_world/20140502/00180_015.html
美式連鎖快餐店Subway位於英國及愛爾蘭的其中一百八十多間分店，基於回教徒顧客的極力要求，把火腿及煙肉從餐牌中剔除，並轉售清真肉食，以讓回教徒顧客光顧時，能遵守可蘭經禁吃豬肉和非清真食品的規定。惟Subway此舉引起當地大批非回教徒不滿，揚言杯葛。
Subway在英國及愛爾蘭共擁有一千七百多間分店，售賣各式潛水艇三文治、沙律等西式餐點。Subway表示，留意到不少回教徒對店舖的食品有需求，為讓他們不會違反回教規條，部分分店現已停售火腿及煙肉，改用火雞肉等食材代替。而店舖所出售的所有肉食均會根據回教教規屠宰及處理。目前英國和愛爾蘭的一百八十五間只出售清真肉食的分店，已分別在菜單、營養標籤和店舖玻璃上貼出相關標誌。
根據回教教條，回教徒不能進食豬肉或是任何非根據回教教規屠宰和處理的食品。而在一般屠場屠宰動物前，屠夫會先把動物弄至失去知覺才進行宰殺，避免牠們受無謂的痛苦。但回教教規主張動物被屠宰前必須是清醒，並採以利刀宰割喉部的方法，引起不少爭議。Subway則表示，其出售的肉類符合歐盟動物權益法。
涉及英愛兩國185間分店
Subway為迎合回教徒的需求轉賣清真肉食，卻被不少網民怒斥做法荒謬愚蠢，要大部分英國人遷就回教徒的飲食習慣，呼籲民眾集體杯葛Subway。有網民高呼:「我要煙肉和火腿！沒有人能決定我可以吃甚麼！」有人更指摘回教徒企圖改變英國，着他們去別處用餐。
有網民反駁稱，Subway在英國和愛爾蘭有眾多分店，目前僅約十分之一的分店轉而專門服務回教社群，毋須小題大做。有人建議Subway可效法某些國家的餐廳，在店內設立不同廚房製造清真及非清真食品，迎合不同客人需要。

我會唸到係一次文化衝突，當英國佬向生活上無意識地習慣「回教」教條，日後會更加容易接受英國起多d清真寺，慢慢英國連節日假期會慢得回教化，咁佢仲係耶教國家嗎？
有大陸人對住澳洲人講，唔怕澳洲睇唔起大陸，只要越多大陸人移民去澳洲，將個個度變成第二國中國咪無問題囉！
如果真係成事，咁早前移民去澳洲既港豚同陸蝗都幾on9
