Islam Vs. Bacon (Who will win?)

Why is bacon forbidden in Islam - Because the quaran says so. Quaran 16: 115
"He has only forbidden to you dead animals (Eat only Living Animals), blood, the baconey flavored flesh of swine, and that which has been dedicated to anything other than Allah.

Because of a few words in an ancient book, all of Islam will miss out on salads with bacon bits, bacon and avocado sandwiches, bacon wrapped tater-tots, sausages, bacon wrapped chicken breasts, a rack of pork ribs, and the classic breakfast of bacon and eggs.

But there is so much more. Muslims must also avoid consuming all the following food items for the simple fact that they all contain bacon.

Gummy Bears - Yep! Aw Fuck!, Welch's Grape Jelly, Dunk'in Donuts,
Lay's Potato Chips, Tropicana Juices, ketchup, Pop tarts, Special K cereal,
M and Ms, Jiff Peanut Butter, Kraft Macaroni and Cheese, Most Ice Cream,
Dr Pepper, Jello, KFC, Pizza Hut, Subway, Burger King, Domino's Pizza.
Sprite, Bagels, Breads, pretzles, boxed cookies, most beers and wines,
Skittles, Marshmallows, non-dairy creamer, Caesar dressing, Hostess Twinkies,
Doritos, Jelly Belly, Mars Bars, Snickers, Twix, Grey Poupon - Aw Fuck - life without a fantastic mustard!!!, Cheetos......

More and more pork products are added to food every day. So who is going to win out and why. Will the pork industry eventually bow to the wishes of the Islamic population or will it continue contaminating their daily food with pork products and laugh as they consume them unknowingly?

You have a reference for those? It must've taken you some effort to find out. Quite a bit of emailing companies too probably, but it's nice of you.

@Leper Re: "Quite a bit of emailing companies too probably, ..."

It is called "Google". OR, you can simply read the ingredients printed on the package of the food item in question. Ain't all that complicated.

It's much more complicated than that.

@Leper Re: "It's much more complicated than that."

For YOU, perhaps. I can totally see that, considering all the different interpretations you have to sift through until you find the one(s) you like. However, for the rest of the THINKING world, it is pretty damn simple.

@LEPER: My apologies. I forgot that English is not your first language and that you appear to be a bit autistic. You do seem to have difficulty reading between the lines and so I should have been a bit more clear. When I said, "It's a quick google search. "foods that contain pork" I literally meant, "Stop being so damn lazy and do your own fucking work."

It's your work. You're the one making the claims. And as I already mentioned I highly doubt all that can be quickly searched from Google in fact I highly doubt all that is true.

Almost anything that contain

Almost anything that contain gelatin, contains at least a minuscule amount of pig derived products.

Want to hear a story about a Muslim eating pig?

When I was a kid, I worked at a well known fast food restaurant chain. We had a sale on a product that was basically a small cheeseburger topped with bacon. The sale was so popular we ran out of the labelled wrappers for it, and started wrapping them in a different wrapper labelled for regular hamburgers, but using this wrapper inside out so no label was showing. A (Muslim) worker came in later and started his shift. A few minutes later I heard a strange wailing sound and when I investigated, I found the Muslim in the mop closet, next to a 1/2 eaten bacon burger. The Muslim was alternating between wailing something I didn't understand, and vomiting into the mop sink. I barely managed to get out of there before erupting in laughter. A few minutes later he was fired for stealing the bacon burger, causing another round of laughter.

@Nyarlathotep: LOL

@Nyarlathotep: LOL

Here in Korea, a friend of mine met up with a Muslim girl. They were seeing each other for a while but her religious BS kept causing problems. My friend finally had enough and decided to end the relationship. For her birthday he took her out for dinner. They went to a Korean restaurant and had Kam-ja Tang. The meal came and she ate it thinking it was great. As they were exiting the restaurant my friend pointed out a picture of a pig on the front of the building and informed her that she had been eating pork backbone all night. (The relationship ended and the little Muslim girl learned that she really liked pork.) Well..... until she learned it was pork anyway.

@Leper: You just continue

@Leper: You just continue in your ignorance little girl. Eat your heart out with all those candies, pastries, creams, and processed foods you like. Lap up that pork. It's good for you. And let's not forget that most makeup also contains pork products in it. You just keep on pretending those french fries you suck down are not contaminated with pork;.

So you're really unable to

So you're really unable to provide a source?

Well I'll help you. The coca cola company says the drinks they sell that have animal derivatives in them are the following:

Lilt
Lilt Zero
Schweppes Orange Squash
glaceau Vitaminwater Zero Sunshine and Multi V

Because a few of their drinks contain small traces of gelatine from FISH.

Additionally some vitaminwaters may have D-vitamin derived from lanolin in SHEEP'S wool.

All other drinks are free from any animal derivatives.

So there goes Dr Pepper and Sprite off your list. You're welcome.

For what it is worth: Dr. Pepper isn't owned by the The Coca-Cola Company.

The coca cola company is the manufacturer in some parts of the world. Regardless it is sold by coca cola Great Britain and they give this information regarding all the drinks they sell.

The real irony is that leper could have Googled that.

@Sheldon: It should be obvious by now. Leper does not google. Leper does not read books, not even her own holy book. Leper does no research into her belief system what so ever. Leper believes anything and everything that is babbled to her in the Mosque.

Hey, Leper, I just noticed

Hey, Leper, I just noticed something interesting about the cartoon picture you chose to represent you. If the veil over the face is see-through, why have it on? It’s not hiding anything. What purpose does it serve? Do you wear see-through garments in real life?

Possibly's picture
Would it be a problem if I

Would it be a problem if I did? Face doesn't need to be covered. Hindus tend to use see through veils.

M&ms definitely don't have

M&ms definitely don't have pork in them.

Skittles used to contain

Skittles used to contain gelatine but not anymore, so definitely no pork there.

Someone clicked 'disagree' when I said M&ms don't have pork in them. Please, argue if you think they do have and look through the ingredients list while you're at it.

Leper, please stop making posts listing food items without pork.
