Of the bat I must disclose that I am the son of a German Jew mother and I spent at a total of 4 years living in Munich Germany. My mother lovingly cooked and ate all sorts of pork and non kosher meats though ate mostly Pareve foods.

1) The headline is insanely misleading.

2) I personally would never cook and serve pork to any group of people I know may be fed to Jews and now Muslims out of respect. Growing up in NY with a high concentration of Jews this was always understood. It could be one of the choices as long as the cooking and serving materials are segregated (cradle to grave).

3) I normally don't eat bacon at home for health reasons but I was cooking some last week and I had a flash back to working in a Marriott kitchen and cooking bacon in the french fryer as a teenager. This was not the first restaurant where I had seen it done or done it myself. It never occurred to me how this would have been looked at by most observant Jews or Muslims.

4) I think all organized religion is bullshit, however I do feel as though when at all possible to respect others.

This kind of article is the lowest of low, just looking to stir shit up.
