This is an example for all parents to follow:
“In Sigtuna halal slaughtered chicken has been served at local schools for some years now - without informing the families. Since this came to the attention of the parents, protests from parents steadily escalated, and now the municipality has decided to remove halal meat from the schools’ menu. ...
The chicken comes mostly from Denmark and is slaughtered according to the Swedish animal rights rules ...
'- In the beginning the complaints concerned lack of animal welfare. But then the municipality informed that all the animal welfare rules been followed. This is also accepted by those who complained, but then the complaints started focusing on the religious aspects,’ says Henrik
Josephson at the municipality’s communications department.
An anonymous mom says it’s wrong to force her son to eat food that the family does not eat for ethical reasons, and emphasizes that her children should have as much right to eat non-halal as those who wish to do so.”
