A student says he was horrified to find he had bit into a bacon sandwich at college when he had bought a tuna one.
The college say they have strict controls in place and will ensure such an incident will not happen again.
Usmaan Akram a student at Preston’s College says he was disgusted when he realised what he had done.
“It was in a plain packet and I thought it was the tuna one I normally buy.
“It was labelled tuna.
“When I went back to the staff they said it was halal chicken so I got a friend who is non-Muslim to check it and he confirmed it was bacon.
“I went back to the staff and only then did the one of the manager admit that it was bacon.
“It happened just before Ramadan and I am always careful what I eat and I felt sick after the incident.”
He said he managed to take a picture of the product before it was taken away from him by staff.
A spokesperson from Preston’s College said: “Preston’s College works hard to ensure its students, staff and visitors receive a high quality and wide selection of catering services ran by its sub-contractor Chartwells.
“As such, we would like to directly apologise to the student for the incident and make assurances that we have taken steps with our catering company to ensure this does not happen again.”
A spokesperson from Chartwells added: “We are committed to providing our customers with a high level of quality and choice, serving a range of dietary requirements including a strong halal offering. In this instance, this was an unfortunate error made by one of our colleagues.
“We recognise the sensitivity of this mistake and sincerely apologise. We have re-briefed our staff and updated the labelling of our products to ensure it won’t happen again.”
You got bacon for the price of tuna. I’m jealous.
Fortune cookie say “That wasn’t chicken.”
The tuna was really dolphin.
Tastes too good to be halal.
There go his 72 virgins.
Did he like it? Come on, who doesn’t they bacon an not like it?
It’s amazing how the western world will bend over backward to accomodate followers of Islam and yet, will not hesitate to offend Christians and Jews.
Muslims aren’t so tough. Bacon scares them. Afraid of pigs.
Did the jizbag die?
Classical Judaism teaches that if pork is the only food available, then eating it to sustain life overrides the Law.
Anyway, too bad for the muzzie snowflake.
The reason is quite simple: terror works.
Which terrorist group claimed responsibility for mis-wrapping his sandwich? This is obviously a horrible tragedy!
If mcDonald’s forgets my fries, should I call the media too?
As I said, Jews and Christians worship God, Mussies worship Allah, and they are not the same.
Tuna eat a lot. Could be considered pig fish. Bacon of the sea.
Offer him a can of SPAM as compensation.
It was all a big mistake, the order was for a Shiite sandwich but the cook does not read so well.
Look at the bright side. This could be the start of his conversion to Christianity. Because... BACON!
“THE HORROR! THE HORROR!”
I got a friend who is non-Muslim to check it and he confirmed it was bacon.
“That is why God and Allah aren’t the same.”
Christian Middle Easterners/Arabs call “God” Allah. God is clearly a European pagan word related to the “invoking” ritual.
“Jews who accidentally eat pork have no problem.”
There is a Biblical death prescription for homosexuals, which Jew don’t do either. Jews are mostly cultural people who only selectively follow their religion — just like most Christians. CINOs, JINOs, etc. Muslims, however, follow every bit of Koran. In fact, the only people that follow their religion as-is are the Muslims.
Lol. Good one!
