What am i missing ? you have to take his diet in to account when buying your own dinner ? are they all high ? Id be buying all bacon all the time , ITS YOUR FOOD not his.

Actually, he can eat anything he brings, and does, and he's not poor. He's doing this as a passive-aggressive domination of the 'pride' or 'herd' or whatever. It's nothing to do with food, it's to do with who's in charge. Poop on that guy.

I wonder what the friend taking food would say if everyone took his food regularly. I bet it wouldn't be so funny if the tables were turned.

JOEY DOESN'T SHARE FOOD

Let's see. He's very particular about following his religion's restrictions to the letter. But he feels free to steal!!! Which is forbidden by his religion.

Turn it into a win-win situation. When he snatches your food, take a bite of his.

Nah, refrain from putting your hands all up in and on my food. I don't know where they've been and this is MY lunch, not OUR lunch. Full agree: if he hadn't broken the rule about stealing, he wouldn't have broken the pork rule by default.

I won’t be his friend for long if he does that to me. Seems like OP needs new friends bc the ones he have now are enabling the entitled attitude of that one particular “friend”.

What school in the US gives out cheese fries? Or any food with add-ons? We get slop and the yard-duty yells st us if we don't eat if, yells at us if we don't eat, and half the time I don't have time to make myself food.

I would have gotten bacon and found a way to hide it let him eat it and then tell his parents he broke halal he would never steal again

Saw a movie about Helen Keller once. One dinner table scene showed Helen get up and walk around the table helping herself to people's food. Reminds me of that, except people thought Helen was unteachable so they let her do whatever she wanted. This guy is just an entitled a$$.

Right, this is so confusing. Like, you're just NEVER supposed to change up your eating habits or try anything new in case HE can't eat it. The ONLY way I could even think it MIGHT be kind of an AH thing to do would be if you KNEW he was food insecure(which op was already asked and answered that his friend wasnt) and you and his other friends always got him something and it was a silent agreement to not make him feel s****y/embarrassed. But even the, he's not entitled to your food and you still wouldn't be an AH. If he needs help and you help him out 99 times without expectation he can't get mad the 100th time when you get yourself a treat like bacon. He still wouldn't be entitled to your food.

tell him to politely eff off!

Just personally, I don't eat pork either (not for religious reasons). But like --- op can order whatever tf he wants. It's his lunch. If moochy mcgee doesn't want to steal it anymore, so what? Who gives a hoot? He can buy his own fries.

Before I retired, I made Ex-lax and ghost pepper sauce sandwiches for AHs at work who stole food. I ensured my name was on those sandwiches so the thief knew who ruined his next 24 hours. The thief once reported me to HR, stating I deliberately tried to poison him. When confronted by HR, I asked how he knew anything was wrong with my sandwich unless he had stolen it. HR tried to brush that off and focus on the sandwich's contents, which I explained was no one else's business but mine. When they demanded an explanation, I said I love spicy food but also have constipation issues and need a laxative. I then informed HR they just committed a HIPPA violation by demanding this revelation, and I am filing a HIPPA complaint. I was told to clock out, and my future with the company would be discussed tomorrow. I left, went to the local PD, filed a petty theft complaint against the employee, and gave a copy to HR the next day. I was immediately fired. I sued, and they lost.

Talk to his Imam, and let him know about his habit of stealing, and remind the Imam about the sharia law, and him having a word with the lawbreaker... That should put the shitz up him...

"he's smoked weed before" Clearly haram means next to nothing to him, from your description. Essentially what you have is not a muslim friend, so much as an exotic vegan with no discipline or self-control.

"JOEY DOESN'T SHARE FOOD!"

I don't know how I feel about this. It's 100% not nice to steal other people's food, but I think putting bacon on it might have been slightly extreme. I'll reread the post to see if I can find any mentions of the guy seriously telling his Muslim friend to stop taking his food before he took that measure. But even if the friend continuously kept stealing food even if the OP told him not to multiple times, then I think other measures could have been taken instead of that. I don't know. Still, definitely not cool of the Muslim guy. My food is MY food!!! Grr

If someone kept stealing my food, I’d just push their food off the table.

Top Tip: Use the fork, stab the back of the hand that steals your food. Pro, highly effective deterrent. Con, can escalate quickly so be prepared for plate throwing, drink to face splashing etc etc

Do you not see what my user name is?? SMOOSHIE DOESN'T SHARE FRIES!! I love french fries and to annoy me, my sibs would steal them at dinner! It was a team effort too! So now as an adult, do not nibble at my fries until I have said you could. I generally try to eat my salad and vegetables first, then my main meat and always save my fries for last since its the worst for you but my favorite part!

So much Islamophobia written as comments on this post. How is BP allowing this?
