In reading the article about subway going halal in some areas, the responses have been mixed of course, according to political leaning. As I continued to read, two things crossed my mind. One, it makes good business sense to serve food preferences of the local demographics. I mean, there's probably not many local restaurants in New England that feature grits on the breakfast menu.
The other issue that crossed my mind, however; was one of shame. Why haven't the Bible believers been vocal enough to inspire this sort of change? I mean basically now, we have unhappy customers who will boycott these restaurants that are now serving, kosher but offered to a false god. I don't want to eat anything that has been prayed over to a false god, but I am sad that those of us who serve the G-d of Israel are not as effective in our stand. I would love to patronize a restaurant that was bold enough to actually serve a Biblical menu.
