No dressing for you – another product banned by Muslims

A website affiliated with the northern branch of Israel's Islamic Movement warned its readers to avoid a brand of Thousand Island dressing produced by a well-known Israeli company. The warning was issued after a local Arab discovered that the dressing contains alcohol.
The Palestine 48 website called on its readers to stay away from the dressing after being approached by Majdi Khatib.
"In recent days, another product was added to the list of products forbidden to Muslims because they contain alcohol," the website said. "Khatib discovered that the dressing contains alcohol and is sold naturally and inadvertently at Arab and Muslim shops."
"I was invited to dinner by a friend and discovered appetizing salads," Khatib recounted. "I asked my friend what he used to make the salad and he told me about the dressing and said it is sold in stores. When I returned home with my wife I checked the dressing's ingredients and was stunned to discover that it contains alcohol, without directing people's attention or warning them."
Khatib noted that he approached a senior figure in the manufacturer's marketing department and was told that the company did not mislead anyone, as the ingredients were clearly noted on the packaging. The senior figure reportedly told Khatib that anyone can decide whether he wishes to use the dressing.
Freaks.
Well, I’ve decided when I open my place, everything will be COOKED with “alcohol” of some sort, that ought to keep them out of the place.
If these knuckleheads had any idea how many products contain alcohol they wouldn’t be able to touch anything! ... including a host of over-the-counter medicines.
New rumor; Everything is cooked in lard.
A small amount of alcohol occurs naturally in thousands of foods. Perhaps we ought to let them know so they can stop eating altogether.

And contains bits of pork.
Cool..now if we could only convince them that AIR has alcohol in it...
Better yet...make the clear link between methane in the atmosphere and pig farts...
Look habib.....pig farts in your air......stop breathing the unclean air...
In other news, Palestinians now claim that the 1000 Islands were stolen from them by the Jews and demanded their immediate return.

A friend of mine has a sign in her kitchen. “I love to cook with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food.”
