After food delivery platform
Zomato, McDonald's is now facing a major backlash from Twitterati over
whether the fast food company serves Jhatka or Halal meat to its
customers. After a Twitter user asked McDonald's India whether
their restaurants are Halal certified, the company said it does serve
Halal meat to its customers.
"The meat that we use, across our
restaurants, is of the highest quality and is sourced from
government-approved suppliers who are HACCP (Hazard Analysis Critical
Control Point) certified".
"All our restaurants have HALAL
certificates. You can ask the respective restaurant Managers to show you
the certificate for your satisfaction and confirmation," McDonald's
India tweeted.
The response left Netizens attacking the company's Twitter handle.
"McDonald's
we Hindus want jatka meat," posted an angry user while another wrote:
"I don't want to eat needlessly cruel halal meat. What option do I have?
Or should I not eat at McDonald's?"
The response irked many
users who blasted the fast food major for serving Halal meat to a nation
where 80 per cent people are non-Muslims.
"Dear @McDonalds, per
your response, should I understand that your products are not meant for
non-Muslims in India? Do let me know," tweeted another.
In a
similar incident, Zomato faced flak after it said that food doesn't have
any religion while responding to a customer declining to accept an
order delivered by a Muslim delivery agent.
"Thanks for the info
what about jhatka meat which we Hindus eat either start serving or we
ain't gonna come to ur outlets ever," posted an angry user to McDonald's
India.
