Recently, Meituan Waimai and Dianping listed halal food in their food lists, and used words in their advertisements to inform that non-halal food would be served separately, which aroused a lot of public opinion. Halal food eaters believed they had been discriminated against and insulted, and collectively called for the uninstallation of Meituan Takeout and Dianping apps.
Some Weibo netizens said bluntly: " #美团halalization # is in big trouble this time! Why do you put halal popular food in double boxes? Isn't this the problem of appeasement and habitual green uncles? Netizens have already Launch the anti-discrimination online campaign #UninstallMeituan. It is recommended to clarify our attitude as soon as possible and stop this practice."
But there are also netizens who support Meituan’s approach. Supporters believe that Meituan’s halal packaging is not a big deal. Meituan provides special food boxes for Muslims, which is not a problem at all. Merchants are free to decide what kind of services they provide to their customers. Not to mention halal boxes, even if the food delivery is in separate trucks and the halal meals are specially delivered by Muslim delivery people, this is Meituan’s freedom.
In any case, Meituan’s halal distribution will definitely have a lot of negative impacts on Meituan and even reduce many users. After all, in this era of consumerism, a little bit of harm to users Disrespectful behavior can easily be abandoned by users. After all, users still have many choices.
