Up-and-coming coffee retailer Caribou keeps compliant with Shari'ah law. Well, isn't that special.

Doesn't matter to me, because I would sooner keep my money instead of shelling out four bucks for a cup of coffee. But if you are in the habit of paying waaaaay too much for your morning joe, just something to consider...

Accordance with Sharia. Hmm. Do they boot out immodest women or couples displaying such affections as hand holding? How do they feel about their Jewish customers (if any)? Do they have a large infidel customer base? How are they and their unclean money handled? Oh, the money's ok? Sharia just doesn't mesh with our own laws. Non-muslims would do well to read up on sharia before supporting the business carte blanche or just walking to the nearest Starbucks. I hear there's one on every corner, how hard could it be?

Caribou (and as of this past January, Church's Chicken, which they bought from AFC Foods, Inc) are both owned by Atlanta-based Crescent Captial. They claim not to be affiliated with "terrorist organizations," but I'm more than skeptical. My money isn't going to them if I can at all help it...

Just damn.

If you want on the list, FReepmail me. This IS a high-volume PING list...

Oh yeah. Like I'll do busines with a " Shari'ah-compliant company " any time in my next several lifetimes!

Might as well hang an AK-47 and Rocket Launchers in the front window, LOL!

Another Jihadist business laundering site.

I wonder if they'll all have a huge warehouse in the back and a mosque upstairs...

Good business move on their part, there are a lot of Muslims in Minneapolis.

I'm not putting anything in my mouth made by people who, any day, might decide to go jihadi and poison the coffee.

Is that powdered sugar, or rat poison?

I think it would be kind of fun to hold a bible class or two in one for a few hours.

The company is owned by Muslims so what's the problem? Nobody is forcing you to buy their products.

If they were a kosher retailer and didn't mix milk with meat would that be "special" too?
