As soon as I read about Campbells going “halal”, I stopped buying any of their products.
I also stopped going to my favorite Indian Buffet restaurant the day I saw the halal truck delivering their meat. The owners of the restaurant are Hindu, yet they are catering to muslims?
Enough Already!
I totally missed the halal crap but I'm not buying their drek anymore anyway.
A couple of things keep them in business for both their Moslem and no-Moslem customers ~ (1) LOWER PRICES, (2) MORE USEFUL SMALL CUTS and, of course (3) A load of restaurant customers to keep up the volume and keep the product on hand fresher.
My problem with them is they do not sell pork, and I can't stand the odor of non-vacuum sealed raw sheep meat. So if I buy something there like a fresh plucked chicken, or beef ribs it's a quick in and out.
They also sell goat meat ~ and someday we might try that with a Jamaican jerk recipe we have on hand. It stinks too but the odor goes away after cooking it a couple of hours outdoors.
