Subway removes pork from stores after 'strong demand' from Muslims | Daily Mail Online
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
