Hi Mate,
According to Muslims, the blessing of God must be invoked before the slaughter of an animal!. This is Halal meat!.
Other Halal products, wont contain pork or gelatine, which has extracts of pig's fat!.
So nothing to do with the breeding of animals, rather the slaughter!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

No it is the exact same foods we buy
the USDA must still grade and inspect the meat
Religious Dietary laws ar mostly prayers and method of preparation!.!.and another way to create jobs for the clergy?
It also tends to isolate the faithful and keep them from assimilating!.!.or learning

Halal meat is a type of meat where when the animal is slayed, a prayer to god is said before the people kill the animal!. I'm pretty sure that the prayer talks about how the people don't want to kill the animal for the sake of it, but to be alive themselves etc!. Hope that helped :)Www@FoodAQ@Com
in preparing halal meat, the animal must be killed in the name of God!. Moreover, it must be slaughtered from the neck to let the blood flow out!. It is different from "normal" meat as its bacteria count is much lower (it is more sanitary)Www@FoodAQ@Com
I am no expert, but I believe it is the way the beast, animal is slaughtered!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Halal and Kosher are very very similarWww@FoodAQ@Com
