You Are Eating Pig Fat

I got it from one of Yahoo Groups so wanted to share it as many people here are living in West. Alhumdullilah, in Pakistan we have not such problem neither we have to look at ingredients of any food products so we are free of such worries.

Why Pig Fat is not mentioned but code(s) are printed?? **

**PIG FAT **

By Dr. M. Amjad Khan

In nearly all the western countries including Europe, the PRIMARY
choice for meat is PIG. There are a lot of farms in these countries to A
breed this animal. In France alone, Pig Farms account for more than
42,000.

PIGS have the highest quantity of FAT in their body than any other
animal. But Europeans and Americans try to avoid fats.

Thus, where does the FAT from these PIGS go? All pigs are cut
inslaughter houses under the control of the department of food and it
was the headache of the department of food to! dispose of the fat
removed from these pigs.

Formally, it was burnt (about 60 years ago). Then they thought of
utilizing it. First, they experimented it in the making of SOAPS and
it worked.

Then, a full network was formed and this FAT was chemically Processed,
Packed and Marketed, while the other manufacturing companies bought
it. In the meantime, all European States made it a rule that every
Food, Medical and Personal Hygiene product should have the ingredients
listed on its cover. so, this ingredient was listed as PIG FAT.

Those who are living in Europe for the past 40 years know about this.
But, these products came under a ban by the ISLAMIC COUNTRIES at that
time, which resulted in a trade deficit.

Going back in time, if you are somehow related to South East Asia , you
might know about the provoking factors of the 1857 CIVIL WAR. At that
time, Rifle Bullets were made in Europe and transported to th! e
sub-continent through the Sea.It took months to reach there and the
gun powder in it was ruined due to the exposure to sea.

Then, they got the idea of coating the Bullets with fat, which was PIG
FAT. The fat layer had to be scratched by teeth before using them.
When the word spread, the soldiers, mostly Muslim and some
Vegetarians, refused to fight.Which eventually lead to the Civil War.
The Europeans recognized these facts, and instead of writing PIG FAT,
they started writing ANIMAL FAT.All those living in Europe since
1970’s know this fact. When the companies were asked by authorities
from the MUSLIM COUNTRIES, what animal fat is it, they were told it
was COW and SHEEP Fat. Here again a question raised, if it was COW or
SHEEP Fat, still it is HARAAM to MUSLIMS, as these animal were not
SLAUGHTERED as per the ISLAMIC LAW. Thus, they were again banned.
Now, these multinational companies were again facing a severe dr! ought
of money as 75% of their income comes from selling their goods to
Muslim Countries, and these earn BILLIONS OF DOLLARS of Profit from
their exports to the MUSLIM WORLD.

Finally they decided to start a coding language, so that only their
Departments of Food Administration should know what they are using,
and the common man is left lurking in the dark.Thus, they started
E-CODES. These E- INGREDIENTS are present in a majority of products of
multinational firms including, but not limited to -

**
TOOTH PASTE,
SHAVING CREAM
CHEWING GUM,
CHOCOLATE,
SWEETS,
BISCUITS,
CORN FLAKES, TOFFEES,
CANNED FOODS,
FRUIT TINS, **

Some medication Multi-vitamins Since these goods are being used in all
MUSLIM Countries indiscrimately, our society is facing probl! ems like
shamelessness, rudeness and sexual promiscuity.

So, I request all MUSLIMS or non pork eaters to check the ingredients
of the ITEMS of daily use and match it with the following list of
E-CODES. If any of the ingredients listed below is found, **try to avoid
it, as it has got PIG FAT;
**

Re: You Are Eating Pig Fat

Have you people living in West ever observed these E Codes on food products.Are they really printed on them and on which products.
Plz. share

Re: You Are Eating Pig Fat

nope...none of these mysterious e-codes are listed on any of the items above. All ingredients on the products in my house (in USA) are definite and google-able. And I'm pretty sure that its a federally mandated law that product ingredients be revealed.

Some medications and vitamins contain gelatin which I understand is haraam. But I have no idea what this business about e codes is all about. They arent here in US anyway.

...and btw...pork is indeed consumed in the west but is not even close to being the primary choice of meat.

Re: You Are Eating Pig Fat

..another btw, if you live in the west and have concerns about various products then look around for kosher grocery stores. All of the products in a kosher store are...kosher and pig-free.

Re: You Are Eating Pig Fat

Dear Mama the posters are experts of UK/US in this field :)

Re: You Are Eating Pig Fat

ok, well I have most of the products on your list in my house...and no e-code. So I'd have to question these "experts" ... show me something/anything that backs up their claims.

Re: You Are Eating Pig Fat

May be they are talking about those companies that your products not belong to.Few years agio ,ther ws a complete list published about these companies like Kraft Cheese and Prince Biscuits and many more who use it.

Re: You Are Eating Pig Fat

One of the claims of your experts is that pork is the PRIMARY choice of meat is wrong. Here are the stats for US consumption:

Farm Animal Statistics: Meat Consumption

A quick google of E100 code brought this up:
E100 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

And a random selection of E470…brought up a page on an interstate highway.

Re: You Are Eating Pig Fat

E numbers are number codes for food additives and are usually found on food labels throughout the European Union. The numbering scheme follows that of the International Numbering System (INS) as determined by the Codex Alimentarius committee. Only a subset of the INS additives are approved for use in the European Union, the ‘E’ prefix which stands for Europe. In casual language in the UK and Ireland, the term “E-number” is used as a pejorative term for artificial food additives, and products may promote themselves as “free of E-numbers” even though some of the ingredients (e.g. bicarbonate of soda) do have such a code.
E numbers are also encountered on food labeling in other jurisdictions, including the GCC, Australia, New Zealand and Israel. They are increasingly (though still rarely) found on North American packaging, especially in Canada. The “E” prefix is ommited in Australia and New Zealand, and the term “E-Number” unknown.

ETA: All this “hidden-haram” stuff drives me insane. Those who are looking for fault will find it. Do what you think is pure and good. Geez.

Re: You Are Eating Pig Fat

yeah, i agree shc...

these "experts" mentioned above are surely expert...

expert troublemakers that is.

Re: You Are Eating Pig Fat

I dun believe these so called experts.. I work in food inspection in US and NO ONE is allowed to sell anything without clearly mentioning the ingredients as per federal and state food codes..I live in a farmers town where they grow a lot of fruits n vegetables and sometimes make salad/sauce/ and other items but we have strict rules and laws for selling those..they need a food permit and MUST label them all with the ingredients- not hidden codes... same rules for big companies.. yeah there are violations on and off but thats not a routine thing!!!

Lets not just follow these experts blindly.. if you are so concerned ask them to give out the names of the companies for such products so we can test it for Ecodes!!!Its just fair!

Re: You Are Eating Pig Fat

I boycott all pig byproducts..let it be gelatin or mono and digylcerdies ( Pig bones extract) or soaps made from sodium tallowate ( Tallow = pig fat) but .....as u know living abroad has its own demerits....Some desies cannot afford to buy pigless products.

My experience tells me that all halaal stuff is expensive....Halaal Pizza more expensive! No Gelatin Yogurt More expensive....No Sodium Tallowate Soap More Expensive! Bread with no mono diglyceride more expensive.....and so on!
Desi people who are not economically stable do eat haraam....have seen it with my own eyes..............Consequences of eating haraaam:

  1. Most Haram eating desies get sick.
  2. Their children if any, get deformities.
  3. Visbile dark rings under the eyes
  4. lack of content
  5. Problems in marriage proposals (lol) caz the ones who dont eat pig products back home are more handsome and pretty. etc etc..................

Bottom line.............*DONT EAT HARAM! *

It is beyond me that how can any phd medical resercher write such statement.

Re: You Are Eating Pig Fat

there are more organized organizations like halal food authority etc who have a staff and have been doing this for years. I have no time to listen to some self declared experts no one has heard about.

So this theory of yours applies to Desies only or non muslim suffer the horrible consequences too??

Re: You Are Eating Pig Fat

btw the same “experts” were noted in a diff thread, here goes

http://www.paklinks.com/gs/religion-scripture/308267-halal-chocolates.html#post6262826

My good freind mad scientist rubbished some of these experts claims..i quote..

*At least some of the facts presented in this article seem dubious at least.

For example, the statement that 60 years ago they started experimenting with pig fat to make soap, and found that it worked.

The company I work for was originally set up over 150 years ago to use pig fat to make candles and soap. Since pig fat was being used 150 years on an industrial scale to make soap, it makes no sense that someone would start experimenting 60 years ago to see if it is possible.*

Yes these are haram ingredients, check this link.
The Islamic CUltural Centre & The London Central Mosque - It’s Your Mosque Too !

Besides the E codes there is also a list of numbers written on products.

It’s not possible to remember this long list of different numbers for people so items that have vegetarian sign on them are halal.

So we buy the V sign items but also check the ingredients for wine etc because some V sign products also contain wine.

I’ve seen so many muslims buying haram sweets simply because not having the knowledge about it but I think that’s not a valid excuse for them to eating haram stuff.

E100, E110, E120, E 140, E141, E153, E210, E213, E214, E216, E234,
E252,E270, E280, E325, E326, E327, E334, E335, E336, E337, E422, E430,
E431, E432, E433, E434, E435, E436, E440, E470, E471, E472, E473,
E474, E475,E476, E477, E478, E481, E482, E483, E491, E492, E493, E494,
E495, E542,E570, E572, E631, E635, E904.

You are right. Thanks for sharing. Jazak Allah Khair.

It's very easy ppl you can just print thid e code on a paper and put it in your vallet and purse. After some time you can remember it's very easy.

Hareem do you tell ppl that it's haram or stay quiet. I think you have to tell them. You guys can help muslims by printing and giving that to Muslims.

We all know these kuffars want us to become shameless like them and eat haram as they do.

They are so cunning ppl and want us to drive away from Halal and Islam.

MO3 are you a muslim?

You are right. But do you know that they put V sign to fool ppl.

Did you find any authentic muslim ppl who assaign those v symbol.

Did you see different type of V sybol in UK? I did. How can those symbol be different?

Re: You Are Eating Pig Fat

I personally don't go near haraam food and dont cosume anything that has these Haraam E numbered ingredients............But then again...people who eat it.......and claim to be muslims........i dont bother to correct them.........let them eat and enjoy.......haha.......

My theory is " I wont eat haram.......and they would..so God will make a distinction between them and me...........and i like to be different!" Plus if everybody start eating good halaal stuff then whats the use of us being a good muslim? they equal to us eh?

Let them eat pig and be sent to hellfire.............mmmmmmmmmm love it!
