A Twitter user, @hibailyas89 recently asked McDonald's India whether their restaurants in India have a halal certificate.
McDonald’s India replied to the query saying that all their restaurants in India have a halal certificate and that the meat they use is of the highest quality. McDonald's India tweeted, "The meat that we use, across our restaurants, is of the highest quality and is sourced from government-approved suppliers who are HACCP (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point) certified."
They went on to add, "All our restaurants have HALAL certificates. You can ask the respective restaurant Managers to show you the certificate for your satisfaction and confirmation."
When McDonald’s India replied to the tweet, it instantly received major criticism from Twitter for serving halal meat - and declaring it - in its restaurants. After this, the hashtag #BoycottMcDonalds started trending online; with people calling out McDonald’s for serving halal meat in a non-Muslim majority country.
