The Benefits Of Halal Rations

By Cara Torres


Halal rations are made to feed various Muslim military service officers who need to observe a certain diet that abides the Islamic laws. These meals are packed in obedience to some religious rules or standards. These are filled and packed with servings that are enough to suffice the nutritional requirements of every person.

Halal would simply mean lawful or permissible. This is a specific label that is provided to some items and objects that have passed the standards of the Islamic law. However, there is no precise rule that tells the right way of preparing and packaging some foods. Its greatest concern is the avoidance of products that have meat and animal tissues. Haram would be the exact opposite of halal since it means forbidden and prohibited. This is present in numerous goods like alcohol and pork.

Some religious groups would have to approve the serving of every meal to see whether the entrees and its complementary items are indeed qualified. This often comes in two moderate boxes and are packed accordingly. The first box contains several entrees while the second box has different components like condiments and seasonings that are still checked and approved.

Such rations will stay fresh for as long as ten months period from the time that it was delivered. The minimum shelf life will only last for at least three months. On most countries, the military is only allowed to purchase such items. There are other agencies who are authorized or funded by the sectors of the government that could also have their rations. These are not sold individually by private sectors as well.

A typical rice meal would include beef stew, noodles and chicken. It may also have brown rice together with a chicken and a sauce. Other meals are pasta with some garden vegetables. There is also lasagna, chicken and black beans, chicken Mediterranean, lamb and barley stew and vegetarian stew.

Pepper, moist towelettes, salt, spoon and tissues are among the complementary and extra components that can be provided. Cocoa, coffee, sugar and creamer can also be provided for beverages. Granola bars, bagel chips, snack mixes, peanuts and cereals are among the usual snacks.

Every meal is properly cooked and can be heated in the microwave for as less as two minutes. It can always be heated again or even eaten without some preparations. Some of these do not even require adding of water.

No wonder that these foods have many nutritional benefits. This is due to the fact that no preservatives are added in each packaging. The nutritional requirements in every pack has 1200 calories that is enough to give you much power up to the next meal. This can also be consumed by everyone even if these are made in obedience to different religious standards.

Such halal rations are not applied only for food choices that will be best for your lifestyle. These are also present in some items such as cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. Its aim is only to prohibit various products that every Muslim must not take and put in the body such as animal substances.
