The French always bring the lulz. Quick (French/Belgian equivalent of McDonald's) is accused of "subordinating the supply of a good, the hamburger, to belonging or not belonging to a particular religion". Why? Because they are planning to serve only Halal burgers in a few branches. Wtf, people, it's not like it changes the taste.

... What is a halal burger?

[duinlas]

It's a burger where the meat has been slaughtered and prepared following Halal procedures.

So, like kosher (but different standards obviously)?

[duinlas]

Yep! Very much like Kosher. (Though Kosher is also acceptable for Muslims to eat.)
