Today, my parents invited my Muslim boyfriend over for dinner for the first time. My mother made sure that everything including the salad had pork in it. FML

Ok for people thumbing me down, I am ashamed to be a part of the human race with you if you're that ignorant. Western cultures expect respect and yet most don't care about other cultures...ridiculous.

I'm a white man from the US, yet I completely agree with you. Remember, there are ignorant people in every culture.

Are you serious? You're a dumbass who obviously knows nothing about cultures other than your own.

Humans are animals too but we don't eat them...at least most of us. Everyone has their own thing.

4, I can't decide if you're really THAT ignorant or just trolling. I'll settle for stupid. :D

It's not like Muslims are disrespecting people by telling them what to eat so don't disrespect us and tell us what we should eat. Douchebag.

Okay... I know absolutely nothing about the Muslim culture or religion, but even I was able to piece together (and judge from more educated commenters) that it is against that religion to eat pork. I highly doubt it is a choice that OPs boyfriend can make on his own. Show a little respect, honestly.

I love eating pigs. They are yummy to my tummy. If the boy has a problem with it he shouldn't date her. Her family should not be expected to change their life to fulfill his stupid decision to not eat something.

youre a dumbass, ok? thats someone's RELIGION. im sorry, but there are some things about a religion you just cannot change... thats like saying "oh his girlfriend eats Kosher stuff so they cant be together" for a Jewish person... Please go educate yourself...

And to make matters even worse, the way OP wrote her FML it implies the mother did it on purpose. You're ridiculous and need to learn things before commenting on something you know nothing about.
