A Hyderabad institution, Karachi Bakery, faces calls of boycott following allegations that it was selling Israeli dates.

Over the last week, social media was flooded with anti-Semitic messages that Karachi Bakery was selling Israeli dates as part of its Ramadan gift hamper. Many Twitter users said that as Muslims their sentiments were hurt as they perceive Israel to be an aggressor in the ongoing occupation of Palestine.

Reacting to the boycott calls, Karachi Bakery told The News Minute, '' A few days ago a few of our regular customers observed Israeli dates in our stores and asked us about it. So, we immediately removed those Israeli dates from all the stores in Hyderabad. We are doing this business for the past 60 years so we always depend on good product or brand, but we never depend on the place from where the product is coming from.” The bakery stated that they are now selling dates from Iran.

Do you never eat Khalaas, Fard, Khadri, Ajwa and others? You can't forget its taste and its all from Arab countries. Dates are product from Arab Muslim countries.

Only if Israel offers them visa & employment , dates can be considered in that case

FYI everything we eat is genetically modified.

There is nothing, no plant or animal in our food production that is exactly like it is in the original wild form.



On topic - this seems a little silly - would any Palestinian care a fig (or a date) what happens to Hyderabadis? The affection and sentiment is all one way...a little pathetic!!
