If the person next to me on the flight leaving DFW objects to me eating the pulled pork sandwich I got Dickeys in Terminal C, they are free to find another seat, since I fully intend to eat my lunch instead of airline boxes
I do work around clients beliefs, if I know them. However, I won't project what they might be. If they don't bring it up or its not obvious, standard rules apply.

When we have Saudi clients I do not go out of my way, as some posters suggested that they would do, to offend them. Yes, I accommodate them. I wouldn’t look at their holiday or dietary habits any differently than I would of any other religious or cultural group in the business setting. Although there are many things about some nationalities that I do not understand or appreciate I keep my opinions and such to myself in the workplace.
Offending the clients that hire us and pay the bills is incredibly stupid.
