*I am trying to say is Wellards hold the key for now & should be pushing to ship them within Australia to be disbursed.*

Gertrude, you are free to charter a Wellard ship if you want, open
whichever plant you want, try and find staff and try and market the
meat. Meantime we won't hold our breath :)

There is already a great supply chain in place, it just needs closing
at the end. They did it in Egypt, they can do it elsewhere. Its
pretty straightforward, even if hard for you.

Meantime the ships could get moving tomorrow with cattle bound for
Elders feedlots and others which have great abattoirs in place and
can close their supply chains. All quite simple really. It will
happen one of these days, there is no other solution.

But the vegan brigade will never accept that, as they are still
chanting their flawed mantras based on flawed ideology and a flawed
premise.

Hi All,

bit more research into ritual slaughter. Found the previous Minister called a inquiry but this goverment are not doing it.
I took the bother to contact them. They said they had spoken with a few stake holders in the past and were happy with that. Surley that all stake holders should be included.

You would have to contact the Animal Welfare Branch regarding the status of this review

@Underbelly:

Sorry, I just can't follow the logic, unless Kraft are involved in ritual slaughter or live export, which I don't think is the case. You appear to be associating manufacturers of all Halal food with cruelty in some forms of ritual slaughter. While I think your heart may be in the right place, your thinking isn't, I'm afraid.

I'm pretty certain that no animals are inhumanely slaughtered in the production of vegemite, but you could possibly have a case if the rennet for cheese-making is taken from animals that have been inhumanely slaughtered.

Is that what you were getting at? If so, my apologies.

Forgot about rennert, but aren't there many alternative enzyme solutions that can be used in cheese production?

Definitely staying away from cheesy vegemite regardless. Just don't see the point - can always add cheese to the toast.

Religion - in our lives whether we want it not.

Ooops misspelling should be 'rennet'.

morganzola,

Yes it was and that is ok. I am not born here.
Sometimes things dont come out how i mean either.I love cheese and
vegamite but now i know this afic use ritual slaughter i wont buy it.


I see what done to calves as a child making cheese overseas

I think i will look for good procucts to make a list for people. We have a rifgt to know.

Yes Ammonite correc
