If my nearest Subway store removed bacon or ham because of this. I would be upset and probably never return to subway.

This is complete BS, Islam can F off they don't change to accommodate for other religions/people/things they don't like so why should they expect others to change for them. They treat woman like crap and they kill innocent people just for some stupid imaginary friend created from a book written by goat herders. I am kinda glad that the majority of citizens in the US wouldn't let this happen, and No i'm not "islamaphobic" or racist, I hate all religion the same.

Guys, as much as I disagree with them stopping selling it. Its not because Muslims "Don't like ham" Its against their religion, Im no expert but I think its because pigs are seen as a dirty animal(?)

What should be done is a halal option being added rather than taking away the main option.

wow people are idiots, this is a non story as only 185 stores out of around 1500 (with around another 600 stores looking to open in the UK) have actually gone halal. SO the chance of running into a halal only subway are low. Also KFC and Dominos have done this for years as it is possible to get halal only kfc and Dominos. Also anyone can buy a franchise in subway just like in Dominos and ultimately its up to that owner if he/she wants to sell halal food or not.

If this happened in Canada Id be offended, us Canadians love our bacon!

If they don't like it then they don't need to eat it. Don't see why they need to remove it for other people because they don't like it

SDP wrote I can't say that I agree or disagree with this.. Although it is pretty insane that such a big fast food store has stopped selling meals with Ham and Bacon completely because Muslims choose not to eat it.

Almost 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 outlets in the UK and Ireland have introduced the meat, which is prepared under strict Islamic rules.

In Arabic the word halal means 'permitted' or 'lawful' and defines anything that is allowed or lawful according to the Qur'an.

It is often used to indicate food - particularly meat - has been prepared in accordance with Muslim principles and techniques.

This is completely ridiculous, Here in america this would never happen, people would riot against subway and burn them down. xD

They need to piss off home. How would they like it if we moved to there country's and demanded bacon and ham?

Your all saying " if they dont like it dont buy it" well if they cant eat that meat i dont think they f****** order it? Lots of muslim people go to subway before this happened and i know some muslim people, they dont complain?
Also muslim isnt a race ;/, why cant people get that into their thick heads?
Anyway im just saying, i dont know why subway decided to do this, cz i havent really seen any of my muslim friends or their family complain..Others might have, but i ont think when ham was there , muslims ordered it, so why completely remove it?
