So, I am in lockdown in a small hotel, which is a bit like Fawlty Towers. Theo owner allows long term guests like me to usethe kitchen 1 at a time.
Yesterday i said to someoen. " I really fancy a bacon sarnie", completig forgetting this guy is a white English Moslem. he told me didn't have a problem with that but some ofthe others might. There are 3 white English moslems in the hotel and a pakistani couple.
If I am using a communal microwave i clean it before and after and so should they so i am not sure of the objection. But it got me thinking. I live in a white christian country. is it morally corect to let minority groups dictate my eating habits. Perhaps next week the hindus will inssit we stop eating steak. i am dreading the day a vegan moves into the hotel!

Not much on your hands, do you?

Yes, but they dont do bacon sarnies. Due to curent medical condition reading is not an option, but thanks for the tip. This is a serious question, as you would understand if you were a patriotic british person brought up on pork sausages and bacon for breakfast. So instead of flaming, how about offerring an opinion as to question :stir:

BTW I can see their point of view even if i do not agree with it so i have bought my own microwave, cutlery and plate

Whilst I would try and solve this amicably, Cambodia is not a Muslim, Hindu, or Jewish country last time I checked. Unless the guesthouse has specific rules, I say screw them and would eat whatever I wanted. I do believe in tolerance, but I also believe that when in Rome..... If, as a Muslim, I could not stand the sight of pork or alcohol, I would move to a predominantly Muslim country, and that's that. Not sure where vegans would move, though I guess parts of India would do.

P.S.: you know that eating bacon is worse than smoking?

Solar oven for the pork, steak tartare for the beef.
For the lamb, just put his backlegs into your boots.
Done.

Oh PCzz, don't be such a snowflake with your own safe old eating habits.

goat tastes great -
and Kangaroos eat grass. Offer a "jumpin' jack flash bangers and mash" to the vego's and tell 'em Skippy's all kosher.
You won't hear a peep outta them again.

And remember Ramadan is just around the corner, you gonna have the kitchen all to yourself until the sun goes down
- send some of that sizzling kangaroo steak aromas wafting through the house about mid afternoon and shout out an open invite to all
and listen to them crawling up the walls

It's the Australian way...

Jesus, you brits and your cutesy names for food.

I had to look this up. My first assumption was that it was a bacon and sardine sandwich but I was wrong......

.........according to Google, it's two slices of white bread with copious amounts of bacon shoved in between.

It can also be called a 'butty' I guess.

Either way, sounds glorious.

Well I would just ignore them. Pay them no attention whatsoever. And all vegans can go die.

@pczz I gather you're in the UK not Cambodia?

If THEY have an issue, then THEY should get THEIR OWN microwave.
How did we ever end up in this backwards world, where a tiny minority expects the vast majority to work around their peculiarities?
