Do you know what "Kosher" meat is?

n 1996, Viva! launched its campaign against the religious killing of conscious animals.

Under UK law, all farmed animals have to be stunned to render them unconscious before their throats are cut.

However, a special legal exemption means that animals slaughtered, “by a religious method” - i.e. for halal or kosher meat - are exempt from this law and can have their throats cut whilst fully conscious.

The terror and pain which these animals experience is immense. They are held in metal crushes or forced onto their backs before having their necks forcibly extended and their throats slashed. Death can take minutes.

How is this allowed ???
