To not offer two types of beef burger at summer fair (halal and non halal)?

[NameChangedJune]

In addition a veggie option?

I’ve took responsibility for sorting the burgers for BBQ at summer school PTA fair.
I was thinking, I can buy all burgers as halal only. A good portion of the school population are either non-religious or Muslim.

However, DH is saying we should also offer a non-halal burger option (he is religious - Sikh and avoids halal due to his beliefs). However I think he is a minority and could have veggie? There are Hindus but they wouldn’t eat beef anyway so it’s a tiny amount of people other than DH who I think would care if we go full halal for the burgers.

IMO one type of beef burger that is suitable for most would be easiest. AIBU?

Absolutely not, I would not eat halal food.

I'm pretty certain that many schools just buy halal meat. Mine does.

Some of you need to see the difference between halal and kosher.

No, I would not. I have never visited any of those countries.

Do you only eat kosher meat? (If you eat meat of course).

It shows.

This is ridiculous. Just get veggie/vegan burgers and halal burgers. Cook them separately for the veggies.
Obviously if the majority of people there are Muslim it makes sense to buy halal. If anyone doesn’t want a halal burger they don’t have to have one. Have a veggie one. Or don’t. It’s not compulsory. I have never heard of someone starving to death at a school fete.

I hope all the Muslims that read these comments don't let these racist evil people get to you. I'm sorry for all the sly remarks and bunch of EDL supporters in the comments pretending they have a reason to not eat Halal.

This is so sad in Birmingham we wouldn't give it a second though we prefer Halal food too and we love the muslim community.

Why?

And your justification in not eating halal is that you don’t want your meat “blessed”? Is it not meat? Does it taste any different?

If muslims started saying a prayer on all the tikka spices & flavourings. Would you stop buying them too?

You're making a big jump.
Preferring non-halal does not make someone a racist.
It's akin to the boy who cried wolf.

You sound lovely, mama ❤️

If you buy meat from supermarkets or have ever had a takeaway or a restaurant meal with meat in it, you almost certainly have eaten halal meat.

And you survived! Congratulations.

But the cakes are absolutely to die for

Racist?
Evil?
I don't think many muslims would even expect non-muslims to also follow the rules of their religion tbh.

Or to be thrown off a building. Or being made to go through SRS.

Aren’t you lovely.

Put up one of those little huts that you get at Christmas markets and do kangaroo burgers and bratwurst.

@mrschocolatte

I’m confused OP. If your DP is a Sikh and religious he wouldn't be eating any meat so not sure what he’s worried about?
Good grief the ignorance on here is astounding. Sikhs can eat meat.

When did Bali become a Muslim country?

OP, is the veggie burger an actual veggie patty or a fake meat one?

No one’s expecting you to follow Islamic rules. You clearly have an issue with a majority Muslim meat eating cohort being catered for, no matter how much you try to backtrack.

Actually Sikhs are forbidden from eating meat that's been ritually slaughtered (halal & kosher) so seems unfair to the Sikhs attending also.

I'm not backtracking.
