COSTCO selling HALAL meat, beware, you might be eating meat offered to ALLAH!

htSeveral, starting with a formal letter from COSTCO ^ | April 23, 2011 | RaceBannon

[RaceBannon]

COSTCO has admitted to several Islamic groups that their lamb is sacrificed according to Islamic Standards and is fully certified as HALAL meat, something that Christians in the world and Jews in the world need to be aware of.

Below are snoips of the original articles where this information came from

So? Allah is just a moon rock they put into a rather odd sexual looking device and they pray to it. Mad Mo knew the masses were stupid and capable of being brainwashed.

Hello,
Thank you for your inquiry.

I can confirm that all of the lamb supplied to Costco Wholesale by the
Australian Lamb Company, Inc is sourced from halal slaughtered animals. The
lambs are handled in a humane manner, are presents towards Mecca as a prayer
is recited by a Muslim slaughter man who ensures only a single cut with a
very sharp knife is needed. Subsequently, the product is certified halal.
The master cartons that Costco receives do have a Muslim Kill legend on
them. The individual packages do not carry the mark yet, but they will in
the future.

You can consume these products with confidence. Please let your friends and
family know that our lamb products meet the needs of the Muslim community.

Thank you very much for your patronage!

Image of the Halal Stamp on Costco lamb.
"Halal brand appears on retail meat packs and point of sale and guarantees that the meat has come from an animal that has been slaughtered according to the strict Islamic Shariah. Before slaughter the lamb's head is pointed toward Mecca, the butcher says a muslim prayer and "pronounces the name of Allah."

Hi Everyone,

I just received this info from a fellow Tea Party Patriot.  This is the absolute truth ... and what a cruel joke on Orthodox Christians ...

We just got our leg of lamb for Easter, and my husband noticed a funny stamp on it with arabic type writing.  We investigated and find out that it is the Halal Stamp.  Before slaughter the lamb's head is pointed toward Mecca, the butcher says a muslim prayer and "pronounces the name of Allah."

We are returning our lamb to Costco and trying to find one that is NOT HALAL.  The butcher at our local Meijer lamb verified its lamb is also has Halal. Jewel and Whole Foods is OK, so we've been told by the butchers.

you might be eating meat offered to ALLAH!

It's not so bad if you look at it right.

If I eat some halal meat, I will indeed appropriately offer it to Allah the next morning.

I make an offering to him every morning! Plus a scoop of Rid-Ex every month.

Well, the Rid-Ex is more for the septic system actually...

 Arab News Article:   http://archive.arabnews.com/?page=1&section=0&article=117793&d=3&m=1&y=2009  

 

“To speed up production time, some halal slaughterhouses have begun using an integrated approach to traditional, Islamically-recognized handslaughtering,” the authors of the book said.

One method mentioned is the mechanical or machine slaughtering approach, which was first initiated by slaughterhouses in Western countries and which has gained momentum as being acceptable in other Muslim countries such as Malaysia, Indonesia, and Singapore.

The method consists of a Muslim pronouncing the name of Allah as he switches on a machine that inserts a cut into an animal’s neck. The problem, however, according to the authors, is that up to 30 percent of the initial incisions made to the animal by the machine does not accurately go all the way through in killing the animal the first time. There is, therefore, a second Muslim butcher standing by to re-cut the neck to conclude the procedure, causing undo suffering to the animal. The book also stated that some non-Muslim companies who are diversifying their product lines to include halal products have got round certain Islamic procedures to gain certification. “Some companies have been found to use a recording of a Muslim pronouncing the name of Allah before the butcher proceeds with slaughter,” it said.

Thank you for the post....I do not eat lamb but this is good info to know and share....

I am a beef kinda gal !!!!

They point the head of he animal to Mecca and repeat the name of Allah as they kill it, this information is in the links provideded:

1Cor 8:1 Now as touching things offered unto idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up, but charity edifieth.
1Cor 8:2 And if any man think that he knoweth any thing, he knoweth nothing yet as he ought to know.
1Cor 8:3 But if any man love God, the same is known of him.
1Cor 8:4 As concerning therefore the eating of those things that are offered in sacrifice unto idols, we know that an idol [is] nothing in the world, and that [there is] none other God but one.
1Cor 8:5 For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or in earth, (as there be gods many, and lords many,)
1Cor 8:6 But to us [there is but] one God, the Father, of whom [are] all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom [are] all things, and we by him.
1Cor 8:7 Howbeit [there is] not in every man that knowledge: for some with conscience of the idol unto this hour eat [it] as a thing offered unto an idol; and their conscience being weak is defiled.
1Cor 8:8 But meat commendeth us not to God: for neither, if we eat, are we the better; neither, if we eat not, are we the worse.
1Cor 8:9 But take heed lest by any means this liberty of yours become a stumblingblock to them that are weak.
1Cor 8:10 For if any man see thee which hast knowledge sit at meat in the idol’s temple, shall not the conscience of him which is weak be emboldened to eat those things which are offered to idols;
1Cor 8:11 And through thy knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ died?
1Cor 8:12 But when ye sin so against the brethren, and wound their weak conscience, ye sin against Christ.
1Cor 8:13 Wherefore, if meat make my brother to offend, I will eat no flesh while the world standeth, lest I make my brother to offend.

I picked up a package of Colemans Organic chicken breast from Bozeman Costco and was surprised to see that they were also HalHal..

[red-dawg]

I would make sure every time I visit Costco to place a pack of bacon or two among the packages of this stuff.

[MadelineZapeezda]

This is disgusting....we purchase a whole lamb from our local farmer....which I’m sure he doesn’t point to mecca to slaughter

[magritte]

Recorded blessings at the slaughterhouse...priceless !! ...magritte

[UCFRoadWarrior]

Thanks for posting.

Like many, I really did not understand the whole meaning of Halal....and I am usually very aware of the various Muslim practices.

Your posting will be helpful to many. Much appreciated

[RayChuang88]

Hold it right there. Isn't halal-certified meat very similar to Kosher certification for meat, too?

[SumProVita]

Personally, since our prayers over any such meat will be to the Lamb of God, the Christ....only good will come of it.

;-)

[pnh102]

Allah is a false god to me. They could dedicate the meat for Earth day for all I care, as long as it meets health and safety rules I’ll eat it.

[dragonblustar]

Time to buy more pork......

COSTCO has admitted to several Islamic groups that their lamb is sacrificed according to Islamic Standards and is fully certified as HALAL meat, something that Christians in the world and Jews in the world need to be aware of.

This is not a big deal. Halal and "Kosher" methods of slaughter are essentially the same, a humane way to slaughter animals. Genuine Halal or Kosher stamps on meat simply mean that you are getting good meat, IMO. If you are not Muslim and are not Jewish, just ignore the religious part of the process because it is not relevant to your dinner.

[Invincibly Ignorant]

As long as its not ground camel it’ll be ok.
