Excerpt:
Halal and kosher issues have ruined more than a few children's birthday parties over the years, but now help is at hand from 7-Eleven, which has just started selling confectionery products absolutely guaranteed to contain no pork byproducts.
The thought of a little swine in your sherbert dab or humbug might revolt many, but sweets very often have a gelatine base made from rendered pig hooves.
So it will be good news for the country's Muslims, Jews and concerned children's party organisers that 7-Eleven has started stocking the products of Cloetta Danmark, a Danish confectionery manufacturer.
