What needs attention
- HaramSpirits
Distilled alcoholic drinks such as rum, brandy and whisky are intoxicants and are prohibited.
- HaramBeer
Alcoholic drinks are haram, including in batters and sauces.
- HaramWine
Wine is haram, including when used for cooking.
- DoubtfulWhey
Whey comes from cheese making, so the rennet question applies: pig rennet is prohibited, rennet from a correctly slaughtered animal is permitted, and rennet from an animal that was not slaughtered is disputed. The pack rarely says which rennet was used. Doubtful unless it came from cheese made with microbial rennet, or the product has a halal logo.
