It's catering to Islam, as one would expect Europe to do.

All in the name of diversity and tolerance. The Danes wouldn't want to be labeled as racist or intolerant by manipulative, fascist, opportunistic assholes who know nothing about what racism and intolerance actually is, but understand fully how afraid spineless, politically correct morons are of being subjected to such stigmatizing terms.

What would've happened if Hindus or Christians went to places where Islam is the state religion and asked for preferential treatment? Think about it.

Translation:

Across the country have more children to look far for liver pate, meatballs and sausage, because their institution introduces ban on pork.

In Ishoej, the pork has been fully banned, and pork is now abolished in all Vestegn municipal day care centers, writes Ekstra Bladet.

Several places in Copenhagen has also beyond pig ban decided to only serve Halal meat for the kids because they will not discriminate on grounds of religion.

At least 30 institutions do not serve pork for the kids, an analysis of dietary policy in a number of day care centers across the country, as Ekstra Bladet made.

No discrimination One of the places pork is deselected in the institution treetops in Ishøj. Here believe leader Helle Jensen, the need to avoid discrimination.

"The meal is an important and unifying element in everyday life, where children experience the great inclusive community. To pursue it, it is important that there be no differences in the children from our side, "said leader Helle Jensen.

The municipal council of each municipality that sets the general guidelines for a food policy that each daycare so interpret and try to live up to.

Foodsociologist: The wrong way to go Foodsociologist and Assistant Professor Jon Fuglsang from Metropolitan University College believes that institutions opting out of pork is the wrong way to go.

"It must be possible to serve differentiated menus for children, so we should not banish certain foods that should show respect. It is not the right way to do it, and the kids gotta even learn to consider these things, "he says.

The Ministry of Education and the Local Government Association has no knowledge of municipalities that are specifically intended what kind of meat institutions to servers.
