Ethical Eating
“But I only get the Fillet O’Fish because it’s fish; which is halal. And I don’t want the meat because their slaughtering practices aren’t halal or humane.” Can you justify eating the fish sandwich if the money from the fish sandwich goes towards the overall unethical practices of the parent entity?

They were cardboard manifest. The very antithesis of my...
