Add halal and kosher food preference traits

Now that the vegetarianism trait PR has been merged i think it is time to implement something similar for our Muslim and Jewish brothers and sisters.

Want to sue the station for Antisemitism after you "accidentally" eat a Super Bite :burger: Burger and puke all over the kitchen, well you need this trait implemented!

Need a fitting punishment for the Muslim chaplain that keeps disarming you while you are trying to have a drink at the bar? Tie him up and feed him bacon, that will surely dampen his mood if he has picked this trait. :pigman:

Do you think this is a good idea?

It seems quite easy to implement.

Discuss

This is a world where religious representatives regularly and successfully pray for the manifestation of flying monkey deities, and you want us to cater to two very specific religions because they exist out of canon?

Yes.

I also im pretty sure Islam exists in canon given the existence of Qurans in the game.

If you create food preference traits related to the flying monkey religion or Carp'sie adherents, i would support you.

I'm pretty sure it's not possible to accurately replicate halal food preparation in ss13 without a bucketload of effort just to cater to low effort memers

Assalamualaikum. It's only haram if you're eating it by choice. If someone forces you to eat it it's not your fault and therefore Allah will punish them and not you.
Surah Al-Baqara, 173 wrote:He hath only forbidden you dead meat, and blood, and the flesh of swine, and that on which any other name hath been invoked besides that of Allah.But if one is forced by necessity, without willful disobedience, nor transgressing due limits,- then is he guiltless.For Allah is Oft-forgiving Most Merciful.

That's probably too much. But when thinking about rework of food and cooking, I thought it would be nice to add a food-preference trait, but with a specific existing meal (sufficiently rare and difficult to make), which would give a lengthy moodlet.

I am not saying that this type of trait would require an imam bless the meat and have it slaughtered in accordance with Islamic law.

I am not a big codeman but i wouldn't implementing the Halal food trait would be as simple as adding the PORK, SPIDER and BLOOD tags to appropriate foods and then checking for them. (Bacon, some burgers, Rice and pork, blood soup, spider dishes would receive these tags).

Kosher would be slightly harder because combinations of dairy and meat are disallowed.

I could probably get a PR going if people think it is a good idea.
