For many people, the Christmas season is the a time for merriment, for eating, for drinking, and for doing everything to excess. If you were you're religious, it might seem to go against what this time of year is all about. , and certainly , there is there's no shortage of church leaders who rail against the commercialization commercialisation of Christmas. Yet a lot of these this conspicuous feasting does have a religious origin. In a moment, we'll hear how many religious holidays were festivals. But first, the link between religion and consumption hasn't gone unnoticed by food companies and retailers. In fact, increasingly we're seeing religious food stuffs, marked as kosher or halal for instance, going mainstream. You can find those marks on a whole range of products now sold in many Western supermarkets. So how did that happen? How did kosher and halal become as mainstream as, say, vegetarianism in the food industry? Elizabeth Hotson went to find out , here in London.

There was a time when “if you want wanted a bagelyou get , you'd go to a Jew's Jewish bakery. " or a halal butcher for land slaughtered lamb slaughted according to Islamic law. Nowadays supermarket supermarkets stock what were was once considered specialist and rather exotic items. , and savi savvy businesses are taking advantagesadvantage. On a rainy day in London, I took refuge in Gifto . – a Pakistani restaurant to the west of the city.

譯文

对大多数人来讲，圣诞季意味着欢乐、大餐、畅饮，总之凡事都要多多益善。如果你信教，可能就与当下的气氛背道而驰了，当然，总不乏宗教领袖们在抵制圣诞节商业化。但这些夸张的盛宴确实有其宗教起源。稍后，我们将听到有多少宗教节日是欢庆的节日。但首先，宗教与消费的二者关系早已被食品公司和零售商们所发现。事实上，我们能看到越来越多的宗教食物，比如标注为犹太或伊斯兰食品，成为主流。在很多西方超市里，都能看到一大批食品包装上印有那些标识。那么这一切是如何演变的？犹太和伊斯兰食品是如何成为食品行业的主流素食主义的？伊丽莎白·霍森在伦敦为我们找寻答案。

曾经有段时间，“如果你想吃贝果，你就去犹太面包房”或想吃清真羔羊肉就去找伊斯兰屠夫。当今，很多超市都贮存曾经那些看似专业性的或异国的商品，精明的商业从中挖掘利益。伦敦的一个阴雨天，我来到城市西边的一家巴基斯坦餐馆Gifto躲雨。
