Another fast food giant has jumped on the sharia bandwagon.
Seeking to spread it’s lucrative business to France, Burger King has decided to save itself the cost of building a new franchise from the ground up by simply purchasing Quick’s, an already established fast food chain in the European country. But it was the decision to keep 40 of the existing Quick’s and change their menu that is causing controversy.
Apparently, the company has decided to make the remaining Quick’s halal compliant, or in line with Muslim dietary restrictions. That means bacon and pork food items will be retired from the menu and only halal-certified beef and chicken will be offered at the restaurants.
Apparently, Burger King really values the business of Muslims, and with the estimated 5 million Muslims in France, there will be plenty to fill the fast food chain’s coffers.

Lynn the only “catering to one ethnic group” they are doing is allowing a few restaurants from a chain they bought out to remain halal compliant. Thia has nothing to do with sharia law…this is a business decision.
They halal compliant restaurants will keep the Quick Brand Name…this literally will not affect Burger King at all…..why can’t people take some their immediate outrage and do 2 minutes worth of research?

Burger King can sell what they want in other countries, not this one!
Lynn Edmondson I like your terminology. It clearly demonstrates your superior intellect.
Don’t YOU understand inflammatory headlines created to cause false outrage based on people being too lazy to read the actual article? This has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO WITH SHARIA LAW….
Don Johnson stop trying to use facts in this argument. If you can’t win by spouting off nonsense, you have no business on Truth And Action threads.
Will never eat there again…sorry BK.
Steven Girouard I bet a man with a beard must have touched your nono places.
Good for you Ron…take away something your kids enjoy because you can’t bother to read an article and understand what actually happened…instead you chose to get pissed off by a misleading headline and boycott a restaurant based on something happening in another country. AWESOME!!
