Brit Jews, Muslims say no to labelling of halal and kosher meat
London, Apr.7 : Jews and Muslims in Britain have reportedly objected to a Government proposal to label halal and kosher meat before they are put on sale.
Reacting to Food and Farming Minister Lord Rooker's proposal that suggests that the public should be given the choice of deciding whether they want to buy food from animals that have been bled to death, community leaders and members said this step to label meats went against their religious beliefs.
"My choice as a customer is that I would want to buy meat that has been looked after and slaughtered in the most humane way possible."
Lord Rooker's comments were welcomed by the RSPCA, which is concerned about the experience of animals killed for Jews and Muslims.
