Islam has always been the food of Muslims, and China is a big country with 56 nationalities. Every region has its own unique habits. Not only different cultures, but also different diets.
According to Islamic regulations, pigs, horses, donkeys, mules, dogs, all animals and animals that die of their own accord, and all birds and animals with ugly images, whether cows, sheep, camels or chickens, must be pronounced the name of Allah by imams or worshippers, and then slaughtered, otherwise they cannot be eaten.
Don't eat pigs, dogs, cats and all animals that die by themselves. Don't eat livestock that were not slaughtered by Muslims themselves. Not only do you not eat taboo food, but you don't even use utensils that are already full of taboo food, such as cookers and chopsticks. Therefore, in order to prevent contact with taboo things, I usually take food with me when I go out, and I don't eat indiscriminately when I eat out.
