Canada’s Tim Hortons open drive-thru in Watford
HALAL STATUS Halal chicken options (prepped & cooked separately)Canadian fast food chain Tim Hortons have marked the opening of their drive-thru in Watford today with a number of giveaways.
Not only will the first diner through the door on Cow Lane be awarded free drinks for an entire year, but the first 100 customers will also receive a free breakfast meal.
Tim Hortons introduced a pair of Halal items to their menu in 2019 which that recently included a Halal Turkey Hot Dog, a spokesperson informed FtLion last year.
Tim Hortons cater for trio of Halal items…
“Our Turkey Hot Dog is Halal approved. Please note that if you are purchasing our new Tims Turkey Hot Dog, please ensure you order with tomato ketchup and not the maple & chorizo ketchup which is sold as standard.
“The Chicken and Turkey Hot Dogs are baked in our restaurants on separate trays, therefore there is segregation of the Halal-certified products throughout the process,” the representative said.
The other two items include the Tims Crispy Chicken and the Tims Chicken Tenders which are “sourced from suppliers whose products are certified as Halal by religious authorities” and the “chicken is baked in our restaurants on separate trays. Therefore there is segregation of the Halal certified chicken throughout the process”.
Tim Hortons clarified: “We don’t promote our restaurants or meat as Halal approved. However, our Tims Crispy Chicken and Tims Chicken Tenders are sourced from suppliers whose products are certified as Halal by religious authorities.”
The business also explained that while “the rest of our meat is purchased from EU countries and is not Halal…. The chicken is baked in our restaurants on separate trays. Therefore there is segregation of the Halal certified chicken throughout the process”.
