Subway's halal only menu in 185 stores

[Yawn]

Around 200 branches of Subway have cut ham and bacon from their menus, serving halal meat in response to calls from their Muslim customers.

The sandwich chain said 'following a strong demand from our Muslim customers', 185 stores in the UK and Ireland have introduced the meat, which is prepared under strict Islamic rules.

Couldn't care less. Thought I might as well get my thoughts in before this thread descends into a 'debate' on muslim extremism and multicultraism. On phone, so apologies if I spelt that wrong.

Surely they should do both? I'm all for more places doing Halal meat and I understand they will need their own sections and things done properly, but you can't just get rid of other meat, not fair for bacon lovers.

Also so much for their new breakfast sub...

i guess this is in areas where no non muslims eat there
doubt it will affect any irish stores

[Matt]

I never get ham or bacon in my sub so it doesn't affect me

Fair enough to offer a halal option but this is ridiculous!! Don't think there is any of them here though.

Sharia Law via the backdoor. It's it just great? I feel so enriched already. :rolleyes:

[Yawn]

on the subway storefinder they have a halal store option its obviously just to appeal and target specifically muslim populations not force halal meat down british throats :L

Oh no no we couldn't have that, it'd upset the vocal minority. We have to be 'inclusive' even if they won't be.

Don't you understand how modern Britain works? Newcomers and minorities come first and the hell with the rest of us.

There's only three Subways down here so I would hope that they've not changed either, it seems highly unlikely tbf. Although, even if they did the two in town are quite close so I wouldn't mind the extra walk, just a bit of an inconvenience. I only ever get turkey and ham so I would be devastated I hate the chicken from there, tastes far too rubbery for my liking.
