Plumping is just injecting saltwater into the meat after it has already been killed. And that's fine, as neither salt nor water are forbidden in Islam. The only thing that could matter is that it's clearly labeled on the packaging how much percentage the meat is vs how much saltwater was added, as you're not supposed to be deceptive.

But considering some countries generally lax product labeling laws, I assume you could still get a greyzone, where it could be labeled as "halal-slaughtered chickens" - but the actual product wouldn't pass a stricter control due to undisclosed brine.

So it's also likely you have a good grocer, but just know that you can't automatically trust some halal-stamp if you want to avoid plumping.

I've driven a poorly designed car without many safety features for years, and I've never flown through the windshield, ever.

Huh, what does halal have to do with this? Halal-slaughtered chickens are allowed to be plumped as well.

Does anyone know what these are called? I legitimately want to buy a set for my frenemy.

"it's only regarding two consecutive terms" or something.

Good. If they want that name protected, they should go back to being an open source nonprofit.

It's because the attention is more important than the oomf for these kinds of people.

If they could easily modify an electric car to make a ton of noise when revving, they'd probably switch.

Don't worry, it'll only put a dent in everyone's index/retirement/etc accounts, everyone other than him and his friends will be holding the bag.

If it hits the brachial artery in your arm, you're not going to have a good time either.

Yay for gender-affirming care!

time your transit from point A to point B, calculate your minimum average speed to make the trip in that time, and mail you a citation when you're over the posted speed limit?

Norway does this.

You don't consider the GRU/Africa Corps to be neo-colonialism at the least?
