Re: the Halal/haram debate
If you were in my place would you eat these chocolates containing alcoholic flavorings?
No i will not eat anything that i figure has anything haram in it.
How conscious are you in this haram/halal debate in various food on everyday basis? Esp for those who live in areas where majority of people are non-muslims and the halal meat shops or desi stores are very very rarely found.
Quite conscious i must say to the point that whenever we had fish-o-fillet from macdonalds we use to make sure it was done in new oil
Alot of people are very relaxed on haram/halal, their excuse being that oh we live here now how long can we avoid it, etc etc. But the thing is nobody dies without a kfc/mcdonalds or some chocos or whatever. It’s not like replacement food is not available. However, at the end of the day i had say each to their own.
I didnt go to any Mcdonalds or KFC here (not even had fish fillet burgers from there) for almost a year and when I went to Pak on a visit just recently…I couldn’t get enough of going there
