Re: Halal Food Products
Lately I’ve come to know about so many products that aren’t halal… for example, the famous Goldfish crackers. I love them, my kids love them. This one lady who seems to be the expert in halalism here locally told me the cheese in them isn’t halal. Then I find out that Pizza Hut’s pizza ain’t halal because the sauce they use contains an animal ingredient 
. Thennnn, Altoids, the yummy mints, some yogurts, some cheeses like Kraft, are all haram :no:
sigh
SO the best thing to do is to call the 1-800 number on the product and ask if there are animal animal ingredients.
This is what is questionable:
Enzymes
Whey (unless the rennet is plant or synthetic based)
Mono di glycosides
Alcohol
Rum
Lard
Pig fat
MSG (look for the source)
Broth
Flavorings
Mousse
Gelatin (look for source)
Lecithin
Tiramisu
Rennet
L Cysteine
Red40
Cochineal
Shortening
Eyhanol
Lipase
Pepsin
Tallow
Vanilla Extract/flavor

Re: Halal Food Products
Can't you guys petition for suitable for vegetarian/vegan signs on all produce?
Try finding vegetarian society websites in your locality. They normally will be the best bet.

Re: Halal Food Products
But then..as well as beef…kosher gelatin can be made with fish/horse bones/hooves…so depends also on how you feel about that 
All of you should just move to Dubai.. you don't need to hurt your eyes reading labels or blister your fingers dialling toll-free numbers!
Dubao Chalo!
Dannon doesn’t say kosher gelatin on the ingredients . Some sites I checked say its not halal 
Gina …i miss dubai …never cooked a day in my life in dubai, could order out , eat out and not give it a second thought !:hinna:
However the thing is a lot of the same products are being sold in dubai and the people are not aware of it cause they assume it is an Islamic country so automatically things are halal. It is not so !
Even bathcare and creams etc that are widely used are in fact not halal.
Simple everyday accessories like soaps , lotions , toothpaste contain lard that is from pigs. I’ve read brands like Colgate , Procter & Gample products , Camay etc contain lard .
