Indeed. Maccas know exactly what they are doing.

Both of you need to stop drinking the kool aid one can only imagine you are motivated by racism.
Can you cite some actual facts for you asertion that all Maccas is all Halal? Can you tell me the difference between Halal and kosher without google?
If you believe that a food chain shouldn't adjusts it menu for the local eating habits then you've missed the point. Why didn't you take a stand when they started making veggie meals? What's the expression halls of mirrors........

Does Maccas use Halal slaughted meat?
Diclaimer, I personally can't stand Mc Donald's, mainly because the food sucks.

What the heck, as the Macca's ads like to put it, is: a slice of "rasher bacon".
When I went to school, you could have a "rasher" of bacon, meaning a "slice" of bacon.
So do we now have a slice, of a slice, of bacon???
Either the language has changed, or the advertising-copy writers are full of well, porkies... Gosh! fancy that!

I guess that is another reason not to eat at Maccas!
BTW, do Halal slaghter houses in Australia have to follow certain regulations? I can't imagine a secular country such as Australia willingly allowing inhumane practices to placate a particular religious belief.

What I can't stand about them is their friggin prices. Come on, $4.95 for a "Big" Mac? The box is the size of a playing card and the diminutive contents fits in the palm of my hand for petes sake. And their Angus burgers, chicken deluxe etc, which actually start to resemble the Whopper in size, are $6-7!!! And I don't think any sane person would fork out $3 for the Cheeseburger, it has the diameter of a Televue Ranger and the thickness of 2 sheets of paper. If half the contents are not spilt into the box drowing in a quagmire of misfired sauce, consider yourself lucky. It defies belief.
HJ's or one of KFC's boxed meals are far, far better value for money if you need a fast food hit. And at HJ's you actually get your properly sized burger intact aswell.

Ever since I found out that all their meat is halal slaughtered, I've made a point of steering clear. I despise the fact that they serve only Halal meat, having willingly surrendered to the wishes of a minority and stuff the rest of us. Google halal slaughterhouses if you want to see my point.

Ok, now there's no need to get offensive now.

I don't see that as offensive - he's merely stating an opinion and preference, and in so doing, references a verifiable fact. He's made no comment against any faith, merely a disgreement with McDonalds' commercial decision.

Thanks Astro_B,
I didn't see how it was offensive either. Maybe I should put up an offensive post just to clarify - lol (only joking).
