Via Austrian Independent (h/t EuropeNews):
The increasing number of Muslims living in Austria has been identified as one of the reasons for more lamb meat demand.
The Styrian Sheep Breeders Association said today (Tues) that 25 per cent more lamb meat than two years ago is currently being sold in Austria. Soaring interest in regional and organic products but also more people with Islamic beliefs in Austria were named as factors responsible for this boom. Devout Muslims do not eat any pork. Recent surveys have shown that around 10 per cent of the Austrian population are Muslims.
