A KFC member of staff refused a customer a hand-wipe as it might offend muslim people.
The incident happened at a branch in Leicester which is taking part in a halal trial.
Halal means lawful in Arabic and as hand wipes are soaked in alcohol, which is forbidden by the Quran, KFC in St Georges Retail Park said it could not offer the customer, Graham Noakes, 41, one.
They told me it might offend other customers, said Mr Noakes.
I explained that it wouldnt affect me. In fact - I told them I like alcohol, so it wouldnt bother me in the slightest.
He said he was disgusted at being refused and would not be going to KFC again.
He added: Why shouldnt I be allowed a wipe for my hands?
They use wipes in hospital. What happens when we start being told we cant have wipes there?

I do like Culvers chicken fingers. Those are good. Then I think you would like the actual fried chicken just as well. I know that it's heresy to say this in the Kansas City area but I'd put Culver's chicken almost on a par with a local favorite, Stroud's.

If nothing else, the Gay Gestapo is paving the trail for them to follow with how they're implementing and mandating gay marriage.
However, the muslims have a couple of intimidation tools in their tool chest well beyond the political correctness the Gay Gestapo has used.
Our weakness is like a free and open road. Our fall from Grace makes certain it is well traveled.

Hydrogen peroxide is just two alcohols hooked together so it cant be allowed either. In chemistry, an alcohol is an organic compound in which the hydroxyl functional group (-O H) is bound to a saturated carbon atom.
-Wikipedia
No carbon atom in hydrogen peroxide, ergo: per definitionem not an alcohol

I wonder if this story is true. These are different kinds of alcohol, and most people know the difference. I am sure that most Muslims routinely use products that contain the non-consumable forms of alcohol.

Most all ripe fruite contains some measure of alcohol.
So I expect the muzzies to keep their unclean hands off of the fruit tray.

I don't know, I have often wondered that. A couple of years ago I ended up in the ER due to hemorrhaging in the second trimester. Had a muslim doc who was a total jerk, and I am typically a quiet and very low maintenance patient. I don't remember what he did every time he came into my room, couldn't say if he washed or not. He also misdiagnosed the problem and rudely sent me on my way when, according to a nurse, I should have been admitted. I am so grateful to God that my daughter was born healthy and full term.

Alcohol made from honey, potatoes, etc. are not forbidden nor is rubbing alcohol.So, aren't some of the best Polish and Russian vodkas made from potatoes?

Sarcasm, right? Not sure...
No. I’m serious. When I say “I don’t expect to see it here”, I mean regarding the story du-jure.
I do expect to see it here eventually, but it can’t go very far. At this point, its happening in europe is a dog bites man story, but when it happens here it is a “man bites dog” story.
e.g. our constitution prevents the application of saria law in any legally binding way.

I think these are still OK.

Taco bell, pizza hut, KFC just bit the dust. All part of the same chain.
