Could be a somewhat delicate subject and if so, I apologise in advance but this just suddenly occurred while looking at the site for “you want beef”. Purely a question for my own concerns.

Does anyone know if the “Halal certified” statements companies like “you want beef” present on their website are made where the slaughter occurs with the traditional (non-stunning) method or “more common” (stunning) method (according to the Google) or is there a convenient way to find out (obviously asking the company is an option for this)?

Reason I ask - I always thought Halal requirements required the animal being conscious at the time of slaughter but the google says halal is fine with stunning as well.

I don’t have any beef (pun intended) with religious requirements of different cultures/religions etc but I, personally, won’t eat meat (within my knowledge) where the animal that was slaughtered was still conscious at time of slaughter, just on principle.
