I think this may already be illegal. You would be inciting and degrading members of a legal religion in Denmark, which has been against the law there since 1939. Blasphemy Laws were taken off the books in 2017, but this is a step back in that same direction. But then there is amendments to the constitution, I don't fully understand.

Hinduism often has a belief in, "sanctity of the cow, ... the belief that the cow is representative of divine and natural beneficence and should therefore be protected and venerated" (Brittanica).

One could argue that eating beef is inciting and degrading to [probably a select few] members of Hinduism.

The difference is Hindus won't murder you.

I like this talking point

I think there's a difference between eating beef in a place where that's the norm and eating beef at a group of people to make them angry or mock them.

But for the Quran, "in public" is sufficient to meet the standard of "at" them?

Well plated beef is divine.
