01:38 Feb 16
'The Halal Food Festival Toronto, North America’s biggest halal fair, took Muslim visitors back in time to see their achievements in the diversity and peaceful coexistence, and contributions in the Canadian society. Over the course of two days, more than 35,000 people visited the fifth annual Halal Food Festival Toronto 2017 that took place at the International Centre in Mississauga.  The guests enjoyed unique offerings at over 200 food booths from the Greater Toronto Area’s best halal restaurants, bakeries, specialty stores and manufacturers.  \"The Muslim population continues to grow in Canada, and because of it, the halal food industry is also growing,” said Salima Jivraj, founder of Halal Food Fest.  She added that \"the demand for halal food is there, but there’s still room for more education around what halal is and what makes certain foods halal.” The two-day festival also featured established and up-and-coming food exhibitors, in-house and guest chefs, including Amanda Saab, past contestant on Master Chef on Fox, and Jeremy McLellan, a comic hailing from South Carolina.'
