Irish food (Ireland)

Irish comfort food centres on potatoes, soda bread, stews, and breakfast puddings. Soda bread, colcannon, and plain boxty are usually Halal plant bases; Irish stew needs Halal lamb/beef; white/black pudding is typically pork blood/fat and Haram; Guinness is an intoxicating stout and Haram.

• Eat soda bread and vegetable potato dishes freely when fats are vegetable
• Only order stew from Halal meat suppliers
• Refuse white and black pudding
• Do not treat Guinness 0.0 as automatic religious clearance without checking your practice on dealcoholised beer
