What we found about Worldwide Foods and halal
Worldwide Foods is an Aldi brand: Open Food Facts records the product we checked as sold at Aldi. Our products from this brand are rice and lentils, which are plant foods.
Aldi UK has made two statements on halal. In May 2020 it said it did not sell any certified halal meat and that animals for its own-label meat and poultry must be pre-stunned. On 2 February 2026 it said it does not sell halal goods everywhere and is running a trial in a few select stores. Those statements are about meat and halal products, not about this brand's other foods, so check the ingredient list and look for a certifier's logo on any meat product.
