BTW, Around here, many of the Safeways and Giants have aisles stocked with items of interest to Muslims and the Arab culture in general. But that's part of catering to the local needs, done on a store-by-store basis. It wouldn't make any business sense for the chains as a whole to start carrying such items.

re: "You can't honestly think that"

Sure I can. I live in the most densely Muslim area in the entire country. Chains of of Muslim-oriented religious stores, grocery stores, restaurants, even thrift stores are prevalent. Mosques too, of course, though I wouldn't call them "chains." But guess what? No right-wing backlash.

Now, it would be STUPID for a nationwide grocery chain to start carrying Muslim foods and products because the stores operate (say it with me) N-A-T-I-O-N-W-I-D-E.

Muslims aren't located nationwide. They've congregated in a few pockets throughout the country. I happen to be in the largest one.
