Subway removes ham and bacon from nearly 200 stores and offers halal meat only after 'strong demand' from Muslims
- 185 branches across UK and Ireland now sell halal-only meat
- Halal refers to objects or actions permissible under Islamic law
- Pork is forbidden and while other meat can be eaten, it must be sourced, slaughtered and processed according to strict rules
- Subway said all halal meat served in its branches has come from animals that were stunned before being slaughtered
- Halal-only menu is in response to 'strong demand' from Muslim customers

after living in brum I'm not really surprised. all the "ham" in the pizza shops is actually turkey ham etc, this is just another of those things. if they don't get any non muslim customers, why stock food muslims cant eat?
I think it's going a bit far to not stock any pork, if i want to order from the menu i should be able to. then again, if they say they have a different menu without the ham options, I'd pick something non piggy

It's like a bigotry bomb went off in the comments.
Dazza, Middlesex, United Kingdom, 6 minutes ago
First sharia law, then banning bacon, ham whatever next, soon we will all be wearing burkha's - I just hope this nonsense comes to an end, if Muslims don't want to live the way we do then leave, end of

Some real gems;
Once again Muslims forcing their cult beliefs upon us. This is how they've taken over countries across the globe, bit by bit with the help of cowering politicians. History has shown us where appeasement takes us and it isn't pleasant. Eventually there'll be trouble in our land and it couldn't come sooner for me!

Nobody's forced anything about this. Subway have come to the decision independently in reaction to their market after a grand total of nobody protested outside their shops.

groups like the muslim brotherhood that have tried to force their beliefs & establish muslim governments
not saying that all muslims are assholes that want to establish sharia law everywhere they move to
but its very possible that the few that complained to subway were lol
