I don’t understand what you are so upset about. It just means that Muslims can eat it. Until the other day, I thought that Kosher meant that the Rabbis prayed over the food. A friend of mine said Kosher just means meat. lol. All these years I didn’t eat Kosher because I thought it was prayed on by Rabbis and could not eat another religions food with their prayers. Man I do feel silly but I believe it is the same with Halal. It just means that Muslims can eat it. It does NOT mean that an Iman is praying over the food because TRUST ME when I say, if that was the case, I would not eat it.

Butterball Turkeys are Halal (No, not kidding)

"well I won’;t ever be getting their products again."

So then, about eating food sacrificed to idols: We know that “An idol is nothing at all in the world” and that “There is no God but one.” For even if there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as indeed there are many “gods” and many “lords”), yet for us there is but one God, the Father, from whom all things came and for whom we live; and there is but one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom all things came and through whom we live.

But not everyone possesses this knowledge. Some people are still so accustomed to idols that when they eat sacrificial food they think of it as having been sacrificed to a god, and since their conscience is weak, it is defiled. But food does not bring us near to God; we are no worse if we do not eat, and no better if we do.
--I Cor 8:4-8

Have you so recently left idol worship? Materially it is NOTHING DIFFERENT FROM WHAT YOU HAVE ALWAYS EATEN. The method of slaughter is exactly the same.
