Chicken + PIG!!!..where is the religious SENSITIVITY?



This is important issue to talk about. As a Muslim, we should know what to eat(HALAL) and what NOT to eat(HARAM). Right now the issue is chicken. The technology have it all, you can make impossible to possible. As we approach to Syawal, the need of chicken will be increase as lots of muslims like chicken. After reading this,maybe they will not be interested in high-tech-breed-chicken. After reading an article which talk about the breeding the fast heavy chicken. After suffering lots of loss in breeding chicken, finally "Einstein" found a break through which use pig enzyme-hydrolyzed protein . Why does it matter to me?!I am a muslim and we are prohibited eating that kind of animal.

There are disgusted things we must now about pig. Pig's bodies contain many toxins, worms and latent diseases. Although some of these infestations are harbored in other animals, modern veterinarians say that pigs are far more predisposed to these illnesses than other animals. This could be because pigs like to scavenge and will eat any kind of food, including dead insects, worms, rotting carcasses, excreta (including their own), garbage, and other pigs.

Influenza (flu) is one of the most famous illnesses which pigs share with humans. This illness is harbored in the lungs of pigs during the summer months and tends to affect pigs and humans in the cooler months. Sausage contains bits of pigs' lungs, so those who eat pork sausage tend to suffer more during epidemics of influenza. Pig meat contains excessive quantities of histamine and imidazole compounds, which can lead to itching and inflammation; growth hormone, which promotes inflammation and growth; sulphur-containing mesenchymal mucus, which leads to swelling and deposits of mucus in tendons and cartilage, resulting in arthritis, rheumatism, etc.

Sulfur helps cause firm human tendons and ligaments to be replaced by the pig's soft mesenchymal tissues, and degeneration of human cartilage. Eating pork can also lead to gallstones and obesity, probably due to its high cholesterol and saturated fat content. The pig is the main carrier of the taenia solium worm, which is found it its flesh. These tapeworms are found in human intestines with greater frequency in nations where pigs are eaten. This type of tapeworm can pass through the intestines and affect many other organs, and is incurable once it reaches beyond a certain stage. One in six people in the US and Canada has trichinosis from eating trichina worms which are found in pork. Many people have no symptoms to warn them of this, and when they do, they resemble symptoms of many other illnesses. These worms are not noticed during meat inspections, nor are they killed by salting or smoking. Few people cook the meat long enough to kill the trichinae. The rat (another scavenger) also harbors this disease. There are dozens of other worms, germs, diseases and bacteria which are commonly found in pigs, many of which are specific to the pig, or found in greater frequency in pigs.

Pigs are biologically similar to humans, and their meat is said to taste similar to human flesh. Pigs have been used for dissection in biology labs due to the similarity between their organs and human organs. People with insulin-dependent diabetes usually inject themselves with pig insulin.

Chicken these days grows very fast and have limited lifespan in order to meet the need of people who like chicken. Let me tell you how does it can be done. It can be done by enzyme-hydrolzed protein(pinpoint protein from different species of animals such as from pig and cow). Usually they use pig because research shows that its a lot more cheaper and easy and also EFFICIENT. Hydrolyzed proteins are proteins extracted at high temperatures or by chemical hydrolysis from old animals or parts of animals that are not use for food, such as skin, hide, bone, ligaments and feathers. Rather like cosmetic collagen implants, they make the flesh swell up and retain liquid. They injected the chicken with these NON-HALAL things!!!!!!!!

Chicken adulterated with pork, but also chicken adulterated with beef waste...This is way to far dude.We are eating that kind of things?..I am pretty sure that in Malaysia to they used this thing to get more profit. The issue in Malaysia involving chicken is how the way it was killed. What an issue here..

Now let tell you all more about nugget. Chicken Nuggets Mechanically-recovered meat is obtained by pushing chicken carcasses through a giant teabag-like screen to produce a slurry of protein. This is then bound back together with polyphosphates and gums. To this slurry are often added large quantities of water, soya proteins to restore the texture of meat, emulsifying gums to stop the mix separating out again, and flavourings and sugars to make up for the lack of meat.
