En twitterbruker spurte McDonalds i India om kjøttet de serverer sine kunder er halalslaktet. De svarte at det var det. Kort tid senere dukket hashtaggen med budskapet «Boikott McDonalds» på Twitter trends.
McDonalds i India har opplevd kritikkstorm mot seg etter at man innrømmet for gjestene sine at deres kjøtt er halalslaktet.
Dette har man gjort selv om «kun» 15 prosent av landets befolkning er muslimer og majoriteten av inderne heller vil ha slaktemetoden jhatka.
Det har også blitt avslørt at flyselskapet Air India kun serverer halalsertifisert mat og ikke svinekjøtt på sine fly.
@mcdonaldsindia Is McDonald’s in India halal certified?

All our restaurants have HALAL certificates. You can ask the respective restaurant Managers to show you the certificate for your satisfaction and confirmation. (2/2)

Go To Hell, then. We Hindus only have JHATKA MEAT, Will educate others as well to not have any Non Veg Food From your chain. If you not want to end up like ZOMATO, ensure that JHATKA MEAT is served. Else, embrace for Financial Loss. https://t.co/ySGeo7Cxec

Why don't you open separate outlets for discerning 0.1% peaceful clientele in each city ? Let's see if you can keep this open even for a day…why you expect majority of your clients to suffer halal?

It is Air India, not Air Islamic that it serves ONLY HALAL MEAT.
Will legally fight & put end to this discrimination
