Could I report a restaurant for false advertising Halal meat?

A restaurant I know has advertised that all their meat is Halal, but its not and its not even cooked on a separate grill, so it would cross contaminate in that case. Could I report this restaurant and what would happen?Could I report a restaurant for false advertising Halal meat?
You would have to prove it. They would go down and give them a stern warning but that is all..I've heard of rat infested places not getting closed down.Could I report a restaurant for false advertising Halal meat?
yes u should...........
Yes you can and it is illegal, you can report it to trading standards, the local health authority and the Muslim version of the beth din (jewish kosher cops)
Report them for what?





Not using meat that was slaughtered in a barbaric manner.





Cooking their cruelty free meat on the same grill as the halal meat you say they don't sell, there by ';contaminating'; it. What with, civilisation?





Halal meat should be illegal anyway.

The only people who'll be even slightly interested in your complaint are the religious weirdos who couldn't pass a basic food hygiene test.





There's nothing wrong with meat that was produced humanely, the problem is with people who believe in torturing animals to please some god who doesn't exist.
Yes, and I would do so.





As a non Muslim it is of no real concern to me but if the restaurant is in fact serving haraam. This is a serious issue and must be addressed.
yes, report them to health and safety. They'll end up getting shut down, or stop false advertising. Also ask your local council/counciller for help. Trading standards is also another place you can go to.
Maybe they clean the grill frequently? Perhaps the reason they only use one grill because buying a separate one for a particular kind of meat would cause a disproportionate burden on their overall costs. If you did bring a case, however, it would be up to the shop owner to prove that their meat meets the standards required by health authorities and the food and drug administration to be legally sold as halal meat.
You can certainly report them to the appropriate certification organization, they will act to stop the practice (pretty quickly too).

Yes, false advertising is illegal, so you could report them. They would be investigated, and were they to be found guilty not only could they be in trouble from the advertising/food standards people, but people who can only eat halal and ate the meat thinking it was halal meat could sue. Something similar happened in India a few years back - because Hindus don't eat meat, mcdonald's said they didn't use meat in their products. Then it turned out they were using meat products in the fat fryers etc. or something, and they got sued massively. Could be rather damaging, even without the legal implications of falsely advertising halal meat.
