Fair cop of the sausage !

As loyal as an Aussie can be ive noticed a lot of Australian products being sold to America.

Ive also noticed that a lot of these products now also boast the Muslim Halal symbol.

Whats happening ?

Aussie Product: Vegemite

halal label: A food label is stamped halal if the contents of the food conform with Muslim dietary laws. A halal certification is analogous to a kosher certification, in that it is provided by a certified third party agency, but kosher food is not necessarily halal, and halal food is not always kosher. For Muslims who are concerned about obeying the Sharia, or Islamic law, a halal label acts as an assurance that the contents of the food are not haram, or forbidden.

Personally i think it tastes the same.

At times ive found it to have a more abatoir aroma and or taste to it , depending on who has prepared it.

My non-practising muslim mates agree .

Hunger is hunger , respect is respect etc.

Meat is meat , and no meat should have its life taken for granted.
