the western chains in muslim countries all offer zabiha/halal meat, don’t think they’ll be allowed a license otherwise. Pakistan’s Mc D, Pizza hut, Subway, KFC all halal, same for Dubai, Malaysia etc. and even Singapore where most chains are halal because of a large Muslim population.
no doubt, it can be very difficult and inconvenient to follow a strictly halal rule while living in the west, i follow it and its tough. at one time we were living in a hick town in illionis where we had to travel 2 hours to either chicago or st.louis to get halal meat supply for a mth. with 3 little kids, planning the trip, keeping stocked was a pain.
now that kids are starting school, what they eat at lunch in school is an issue too, so I pack my son lunch everyday and if we are in a hurry in the morning, then i go especially out to drop it to school. i personally don’t miss eating meat in restaurants as im fond of seafood but it sure would be nice to pick up my meat fresh at the local supermarket and not worry about freezer burns, thawing and running out of stock
